I recently reinforced the rear end with a 1" aluminum bar and noticed a real difference in the rear end tightness with high g turns. So this makes me wonder whether these reinforcement bars are actually better at controlling "splaying" of the rear suspension better than the plate and would facilitate ditching the thing. That would leave linear motion at play (front to back) but I don't know if that would actually happen since the virtual A frame struts (notably the track arm) would control this.
No real reason to remove the thing other than it was a bit of a pain to get lined up while reassembling the rear end. Asking more out of curiosity.

The reason it is a pain to realign is that when assembled, that aluminum panel is under tension and keeping the uprights in their correct position.
