Hi Tom 


  
Quote:Any number of structural failures risk catastrophic failure, dropping the load on the operator or an innocent bystander

I dont see how  , the operator is far enough back and there should be no one standing around/under  an elevated load . Power pedestrian pallet trucks do not have over head guards.   

Quote:Case in point; the forks are the most highly stressed component of a forklift and the builder chose to use welded steel tubing in lieu of forged high strength steel commonly used in such an application.


Not true , allot of small stacker's use a folded "U" section fork welded to the carriage .
