While I don't disagree any point, what makes you say the 262 is structurally 'sounder' than say the 163?
The shorter wingspan and deeper chord of the 163 certainly gave it a possibility of a much stronger wing, and the lack of horizontal stabililzer removes loads from the tail.
Getting rid of landing gear and associated cut outs of skin and structure adds even more probability of being stiffer and stonger.
Lack of sustained input at high frequency from a jet engine takes out every harmonic input except flutter and I don't recall that was a problem..
So why would the 262 be deemed 'sounder structurally'??
