We've had the conversation Mogul describes several times in the last year or so. We use mostly Chief mounts and some of their articulating units are pretty tight, especially the ones that have been in the wall for awhile.
I been expecting to get a call one day about a snapped Sony.
Just in case someone out there hasn't heard the term, let me repeat it:
"I never knew you could taco a TV! We tried to pull it out from the wall and it folded like a corn tortilla!"

Started poking around and found one of the top screws on the panel wasn't tightened down to the mount all the way. The display was actually bending as a result of it.
Haven't broken one yet, but wow, you have to be really, really careful with these.
Maybe not. Someone wasn't careful with that TV but it's apparently performing well. From what you said, it's more like "it'll scare the crap out of you but it doesn't actually have to be mounted flat."
Just to be clear, I mean flat as in a two-dimensional plane with no bending or warping. I don't mean plumb or level or anything else about orientation.
