I don't disagree with your statement.

This is a bit extreme however @0:13 you can understand the need for this container ship to flex in rough weather. I know it's not exactly the same, but part of the concept can be applied to certain components of a cars chassis.
Additionally this will come down the the design of the chassis and cost of said materials. It's all about the money, as always...

everything is going to flex some but that doesnt mean they want it to. my point is that it isnt something they want but since it exists with in the world they work in they are forced to deal with it. you can bet that if someone could build a product with less flex and more durability they would. its like saying that race tires are designed not to last long. just because they dont last long doesnt mean that people dont want them to
