IMO not at all. I've never had one and probably never will, I know I stand alone when saying this.
I've had two 2500HD( still have one actually) and a 3500HD ( also have) and have towed upwards of 14,000 LBS on a bumper draw that had so much tongue weight it twisted the factory hitch off my 2500HD (so lets assume over 1,000 lbs) with no issue. Yes the truck squats ( but not a lot) yes it's made to do that, no it's not a safety concern unless you don't know how to tow and want to run like it's a sports car when loaded.
IF you have to fight the sway or bumps ( bucking) that hard you either need new shocks on the TV, need to adjust your coupler height for a more level riding trailer or you need to adjust the loads in your trailer.
