I am not citing anicdotal evidence. I am citing the closest thing to a
labratory experiment available, the FWW labs. They tested thin kerf
alongside full size and found NO evidence of "wobble" or deflection,
even specifically on shaving cuts where one side of the blade is
unsupported.

But no one is stopping you from buying extra metal amd making extra
sawdust and wearing our your saw motor extra early and burning rips
when you bog your saw, etc. etc.

I used to have a one horsepower tablesaw. Never used thin kerf blades on it.
Never had any trouble cutting whatever I wanted on it. Blade design and feed
rate are much more important than blade thickness.
