"And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works." - Bastiat
"It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere." - Voltaire

Not too stable - you wouldn't want build a house of cards or perform surgery on it - but still pretty neat.
If the y-axis runs top-to-bottom, the x-axis runs lower-left-to-higher-right, and the z-axis runs higher-left-to-lower-right, it's going to have some play in the (horizontal) xz-plane (e.g., it will be susceptible to twisting & oscillation parallel to the ground).

In my experience in civil construction, this is exactly what is wrong with engineers. We'd all be better served by engineers who've spent a couple of years working in the field so they could understand how things *actually* work.
