I believe you are correct and I believe that what you are expressing can be generalized - and distilled - as the following:

Bracing a body part weakens that body part in the long run.

Anybody who has ever had a cast on their arm knows this firsthand.

Yep. I walk barefoot everywhere I can and if not, then I wear sandals. I was having terrible pain in my feet when I was wearing “shoes with support”, which went away once I started wearing sandals and going barefoot everywhere. If I run I run with glove shoes or whatever they’re called nowadays.
