I was taught that it's the ratio between the TV axle/hitch and hitch/trailer axle. Moving the hitch closer to the tow vehicle axle is [proportionally] equivalent to lengthening the tongue.

slowmover can tell you about a swinging hitch that does something similar. I don't recall the brand name or how it locks (or not).
