Aye, I don't think it's a new idea. The thinner the plates and the bigger the distance between the steerer and legs the flexier it will be. but compare that one with one Heldring posted or to a Lauf fork and it looks pretty bloody stiff to me.
You would have to talk to an engineer to figure out the details, or get a frame builder to build a bunch of them to get the compliance right. Too much and it'll be a floppy POS.
