You sound really well versed on this subject and certainly passionate.

I have zero studies to fall back on; but I feel if 1,000 pounds is slamming into me in a corner I wouldn’t want something gripping the surface preventing nature from absorbing the blow.

Same theory as the football player (ala Cadillac Williams) who gets their spikes caught and wrecks their knee. I always though it was the reason a collision sport like hockey had relatively few knee injuries because the skate gives with the blow.

As I said; no hard data to prove anything, just antidotal observations.
