That it is not recommended on a dry runway doesn't have to do with stress on the landing gear. Just that one can get close to the upwind runway edge very fast if not corrected soon after touchdown. Mind you, that is of course a required advise for narrow runway operations (less than 30m width) which is the limiting factor on our landing performance.

On this video i saw no one approaches the upwind runway edge, rather the opposite.
