Thanks for the info! Wow, even more nonsense encouraging excessive weight, I had no idea but am sadly less and less surprised :-(

This whole situation is especially horrible in light of research [1] that shows that extra weight on motor vehicles is more dangerous to other road users and that any extra safety for those inside the heavier vehicle is strictly speaking being achieved by an equal and opposite "zero sum" reduction in safety for all other road users
