Doesn't bump-steer make a car twitchy? Especially bump toe-in, as in your hardest steering with the most front suspension compression, it would try to turn even more and take ackerman out of the car instead of how zero pump or even bump toe-out would try to make the car corner more softly with hopefully more predictable movements...

Am I nuts for questioning the trend?
Frankly, you've always been a bit off.
