Idle stop - you get the impression that CG calculations are generally ignorred by the training fraternity.
I have to agree with you.
From my experience having mentioned CG to several newly fledged PPL's I know that they are very hazy, ( very foggy) about the need to carry out meticulous CG calculations. Many dont know how to do CG calculations as they have not been required to do them during their training before each flight.
Simply said. weight AND CG must be within limits.
