Attached also the quote from Perkins and Hage to show how the use of bob weigh and CoG at aft center of gravity are connected
Why are you regurgitating the same stuff I just posted. Puzzling...

Anyway, yes, the bob weight artificially increases the stick forces so that the pilot can have more control.

That is band-aid to fix the longitudinal instability the NACA reported!!!

The fact Supermarine recognized that longitudinal instability and took measures to fix it invalidates any pointy tin foil hat theory the instability did not exist.
