I agree with you that it's not about being limited by steering effort/force; but I also think that it doesn't matter because it's essentially impossible for a driver in the toad to line up the front wheels in direction of travel (unless limited to 100% straight back). And if wheels are not lined up extremely close, then the damage is done anyway.
I tried it a few times with an open wheel buggy and gave up. It was easier (in my case) to let front wheels skid across road, which didn't hurt anything because front end was extremely light. However, I wouldn't do it with a normal car.
Most importantly, the Compass 23TB is on Ford Transit chassis which has semi-unitized construction, and it has a frame extension to make it even worse. Unintended side forces at hitch receiver could easily do damage to motorhome.
