Not using a WDH on a marginal TV is much more dangerous than adding weight to the TM axle. I'm not sure of the percentages, but I would guess that a larger number of owners use a WDH, than don't. I have only heard of one axle failure (Tampajohn) and his was a result of a deep pothole. If axles were failing on a regular basis, this argument might have some traction, but I believe it is a non-issue. WDH's are a necessity on TV's that have under a 5000 LB tow capacity.
