Why do people keep thinking this thing is top heavy just because its taller than wide?

The heavy bits are at the bottom.

Because it keeps falling over?

The landing leg broke. How does that show you its top heavy?

I didn't say it was top-heavy. I answered the question, "Why does everyone think it is top heavy?"

Ah complete total ignorance. Figures

Because itbit wasn't top-heavy, a broken landing leg would just leave it slumped at an angle. Not fallen-over.

Consider the difference between removing the leg of a chair versus a stool.
