maybe somone uses it and could say something about it, just curious ?
I've used it on a proper tour and it... works:
But your points are valid. Had to move the mounts of my Ortlieb pannier bags a little too much to the middle for comfort, might be the reason one bag snapped (not at that point though, so maybe not).
I have the large (platform) size and was really happy with it. Put my tent and sleeping back on top and that worked perfectly.
All in all pretty good rack for the money, though not ideal for pannier bags I'd say.

liked the simplicity of rack. mounts from 4mm laser cut steel
btw today saw Pelago front rack on a bicycle, and I wasn't excited as seeing it on web. it didn't looked perfect rack for panniers, as mounting tube is crazy short, and there is no much space for pannier bag to lean, maybe someone uses it and could say something about it, just curious ?
