I'm no engineer but it seems like if a foundation was designed to be supported by dirt on both sides then you remove the support on the inside you might have problems.
I had to craw under the front house to remove a dead skunk...
good times... good times...
After that I replaced the foundation vents (some rusted out) and have not had any problems since.
Tried to crawl under a friends house to replace the pilot light in his floor heater... after about five minutes I crawled... at 52 my crawl space days are over.
