This is your conundrum, because any bottoming out now, is like having a 6?" diameter TB at that point, and the impact loads the chassis sees, and any TB of smaller diameter, softens the impact loads the chassis sees. The actual forces don't change, just the rate they get to the chassis does, if everything else stays the same. Seems like everyone has different bottoming out thresholds, so no one answer fits all IMO. Pick your poison.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
