I wouldn't rely on it saving anything if the bolt comes loose and it starts swinging, but there would likely be fewer chances of problems in the first place if the weight distribution applies more force on the clamp as opposed to the bolt.

By the way, thanks for joining CB and becoming a poster. We have too many lurkers out there that don't give us their input. Make sure to stop by the New Member Board and tell us about yourself.
