Yes, you are right. I still installed it without following manual 100% - I never carry significant loads anyway - it's more for stuff like ski equipment that is pain to put into cabin (no more than 15-20 lbs anyway) so I don't think it matters for me, but if you are carrying max load like 80 lbs or 100 lbs - then yes, definitely need to follow those instructions
