Just as there is an optimal line to follow through a curve, just touching the apex, there is an optimal line for a straight line; and it's ...a straight line.
Constant course corrections work the tires and affect wear and fuel economy.
Close enough?

Once the various body and suspension bushings age, they allow steering slop. It's serious enough to be a measured concern: course corrections per 100-miles.
With trucks it takes less of a problem to create more inefficiency.
Agreed.
