If a steering stabilizer like this is that beneficial, why doesn't Ford include one? Or offer it as an option?

The videos suggest it mostly preloads steering to stay in one place (straight ahead), which may work some of the time in ideal conditions, but what happens when the road slopes right to left or left to right? What about cross winds from the right versus left?

All tires have an inherent slip angle when subjected to side loads and this stabilizer doesn't appear to adjust for that.

It seems to me the ideal steering stabilizer is the one you don't need.
