That way, the power can be reduced in city driving to keep the trailer from “grabbing” the brakes, resulting in the “bobble head” effect on the tow-vehicle occupants. The safety issue here is that the driver can fail to turn the gain back up for high-speed driving, which can result in an accident in a panic stop situation.

That's *exactly* what happened to us. I didn't like the "grabbiness" at 7 in town and dialed it down to 5. Then forgot about it. Not good.
The other problem with that dial is that it's readily accessible (at least the way I installed the Prodigy controller) and perhaps too easily adjusted accidentally. I now try to double-check the setting at each start-up.
Anyway, live and learn ...
