I have doubts that the 2 extra bars mean much. If you look at the rear of that alum plate where it is bolted in, that's a fairly light duty drop section of framing. It can't possibly be designed to do much in the way of providing controls of stresses regardless of what framing you attach to it. That triangular shape of the plate is likely to prevent a twisting motion but I doubt it has much work to do. I'll call 'em "Can't Hurt Bars"!!! Just one guy's opinion.
