Is this a question?
As statement, I don't see enough supporting details in all of the internets to give it alot of merit.
As question, my answer would be "no"... F/F arrangements aren't any more stable in x-winds than any other arrangement would be, EXCEPT with minor consideration to weight distribution in some platforms.
Point is, a barn isn't slicing through trhe air, regardless of which of the cows' feet are pushing it...
M/R platforms are typically better balanced, however, and can handle curbed and odd retain better than other platforms, because the single largest weight (potential operator not included in assessment) is placed laterally, and low within the cage, close to center.
That's my take, anyway.
