I wasn't aware of any arguing. It's just something people should be aware of, especially if they ever remove the shackle to use somewhere subjected to potentially greater loads.
But in any case, you're right, particularly when it comes to the hitch on the Discovery, which are known for being a little less robust others. But even ideal Class III hitches are only rated at 10,000lbs.
