Default Faucet stability weak on 20gauge stainless sinks

I tried to install a sink from lowes made by American Standard and the client
was not happy with the rocking movement of the faucet on 20 gauge stainless
steel kitchen sink. After fully installing sink and faucet as kit sold for
399$ the client tried swiveling the snout and the entire faucet flexed the
metal at the base where attached to sink.?

You end your rambling with a question mark. Where's the question?

My stainless sink has a spout.

The spout is attached to a rectangular metal base (9" by 2") that does not
allow any flexing of the stainless sink.

That base is for use if it's a 3 hole sink. Without it, you get a cleaner,
more modern look. That's how I install mine. But you have a possible
solution. If he has the plate and wants to use it, it would likely beef
it up. Me, I'd be on the phone with American Standard.
