I heard that there is no longer the need for the shroud plate or whatever it's called for the roof A/C as they have reinforced and beefed up that area now on the roof for support.
So, hopefully they have given the same thought into the longer overhang.
Still is comforting to know that they have a 6 year structural warranty.
