Even a 23mm tire flexes more than the differences among modern frames.

OK but everyone (but you to give me a hard time on it, right?) ignores
this obvious fact then goes on endless blathering about how the frame
does this and gurk gurk gurk

so why not me right?

Like there's gotta be a reason for everyone to go on about frame
absorbing vibration.

I asked Sheldon "WHY IF THE WHEEL AND TIRE..." and he said " I dunno,
it puzzles me too but everyone does it."

why be difficult ? just ignore reality and come up with some data.
