This might be a stupid question, but why wouldn't VW have designed it better if it was such as issue? And Monsta pointed out above, it is a bit concerning where does that tension then get transferred to and would it perhaps weaken other components?
I don't think it's an issue that needs addressing by VW as such, as anything that can be felt during changes is fairly minimal. The stock setup causes no vibrations at all and this is probably more important to 99% of buyers than the additional feel provided by this upgraded version. There are a fair few on the market too. My colleague has had a Revo one fitted to his cupra for several years with no issues.
As for additional strain on other components I can't say, but I would like to think that it would be minimal. The rubber in the orginal bush is still there, so there is still a degree of movement.
