Spot on explanation of what physics does to sound boards. The big question that
I have never had answered is why do plucked string instruments have the string
tension carried by the soundboard itself, instead of having the string tension
carried by the body of the instrument via a tailpiece the

Sorry, I don't understand this comment. Are you referring to soundboard
thicknesses? If so, how is this relevant to dishing?

The scoop keeps the action stable, and that’s its main function.
An axe without the scoop is a disaster to be avoided.

Unfortunately things don't work that way. Generally over time the tension of
the strings pulls the bridge towards the neck so that its front edge sinks and
this is what causes the bulge in the soundboard you refer to. It's true that if
you have no dishing, this immediately makes the lute
I have 6 axes, no bulges on any of them, knock on wood.

Bingo. Wish I could post a pic of my archlute. 3 mm. at the bridge side
of the rose, right where my RH wants to be, ergonomically. The one
"silver lining" to this deplorable soundboard distortion is that it
forces
What is the reasoning behind that claim?

Physics, I suppose!))
The pull of the strings deepens the scoop, rather then lifting the bridge.
The non-concave soundboard also carries a large risk of becoming convex, and
I’ve seen a few lutes with a nasty bulge between the bridge and the rose.
