My brother has been towing nearly 40 years. He never greases the ball, never attaches anything to keep the hitch from rattling around and just has accepted this is towing.
Me, I have perfection.
I grease the ball.
I tighten the trailer hitch to fit the ball perfectly, just enough to move freely in all direction, but tight enough that there is no play.
I use the U-bolts to tighten the receiver so it does not move, and lastly
I have a WD hitch.
I get no lurch (whatever that is) or any odd input from the trailer hitch.
I cannot imagine how rubber would improve anything in my system
