The right frame help make it feel more stable, but if you were to put such panniers and rack on your Diamante, it'll feel pretty unstable.
That's one advantage I can think of the 'bikepacking' notion, it certainly didn't feel unstable when I had a small framebag and moderately packed and well secured saddlebag.
