...if the owner pays attention to published limits, your point is moot. I.e., do not exceed TV max weight limit, nor towing limit, nor combined gross weight limit. The question then becomes - Is the 3500 lb towing limit based on an assumption which does not apply to a LOW PROFILE, low drag trailer?
