Sarcasm?
The only real difference is that most of the forces in the bumper's case are horizontally derived, whereas the roll-bar the forces are mostly vertical.
Each system has significant off-center diagonal forces, but diagonal vectors of force are just combinations of the two directions.
Look, this could all be a dead end venture. Either you are curious about the subject and want to learn more, or you are content with a life of monkey see, monkey do.
Are you a curious monkey or not?
