There can be several schools of thought on this, and being who I am, I have one :-).
I believe that a decaleur should act more as a positioning device and less of a support. The rack platform, if on a properly installed and well designed rack, should be very strong for holding a loaded up rando bag. By contrast, the decaleur is a lightweight tethering device. If it were to act as the main support, there would be no need for a rack! You would hang the bag from the decaleur and have a tombstone mounted to the brake bolt, and that would be it. The rack has a purpose, which is to support a load. 2. I thought decaleurs aren't supposed to support any weight anyway.
