Zoltan -

I don't think they asserted that this is an OK thing to do - at least I don't read it that way. They seem to say that if you must choose between a well balanced trailer that is a bit over the tow rating, and a trailer that is poorly balanced and sways, but is a bit under the rating, then the former may be a bit safer. But I don't think they recommend either, or give you carte blanche to do either. I certainly wouldn't put myself in either situation.
