I was the sole owner of the PA 28 which never used an oleo seal and I share the Trinidad. There isn't anything savage in holding an aircraft down like this, if it's really ready to fly then off we go, it's all about not letting the aircraft be fooled by a gust, as soon as it's pushing to fly then it flies. I have no desire to control an aircraft on a narrow runway any longer than I need to.
Both POH have a demonstrated cross wind speed which is way below the aircraft's capability.
