Beacuse wheels are designed so that they don't compress the bearings when tightened up, but also, with a veritcal dropout, the pull is more than 90 degrees to the possible exit direction, if anything, the axle would move upwards, not down.
Am I not making sense here?
I need a bikes suck sticker too.
