Tokay444: You have bushings & suspension for parts where movement/flex is needed "for things not to break", "for car to be more comfortable" and to keep grip un uneven road surfaces. In chassis however extra flex in most cases just rob you of control. Yes, it also may impact grip, but it's much better to get that grip with appropriate suspension changes, then with reducing chassis rigidity. There is reason why manufacturers always boast about strengthening chassis vs older generations as an achievement in PR materials whenever they stiffen up chassis with slight redesign or usage of stronger steel.
