I would like to see you demonstrate the Serpent system keeping the wheels vertical over the sort of wheel travel a buggy has, not just the rather short travel of a nitro on road chassis.

Can I also point out that the first video link you posted demonstrates the chassis in roll, but never actually moved the chassis vertically to back up your argument.
And the way a Wheel leans in is due to a compromise for corner grip on linkages
My other vids do show up and down
