Crossing branches have been somewhat supporting one by the other, commonly.
Guy Milleur has said (convenient numbers) that 15% reduction Can offer Up to 50% more stability.
Less is more.
I wonder if a light reduction pruning and 'canopy cleaning' would be just the routine maintenance that they need, both to reduce dropping mess.
I wonder also if they have summer limb drop/ sudden limb drop.
Just saw two large oak trunks on the ground when driving past my friends' rental...
The question is why were they dropping limbs?
Old and dead?
Splitting off in storms?
Size?
Important objects beneath or just old people with "messy" trees that they have to clean up after? History of damage? Arborphobia?
