And some planes have "flying tails" that constantly provide positive
lift in level flight - while other planes have "reverse flying tails"
that contantly provide down-force in level flight. Just look at the
airfoil configuration of the rear stabilizer/elevator on, say, a
Zenith 701 and compare it to, say, a cessna 172.

The 701 does not have a lifting tail. You're nuts.
The 701 tail pushes down to hold the nose up, just like the 172 tail does.

I see on their website

they're calling the stabilizer an "inverted stabilizer". Just silly words.
