I was concerned about that at first, but it sits upright enough that most of the weight goes straight down. You can get a feel for how much the stress changes at different angles by holding your ipad with you thumb and index finger at the bottom where the stand would touch. (careful)

The most stress is probably on the casing in the back. I dont detect any flexing going on back there even when I push firmly from the front. I added felt liners in the grove to further spread the stress and soften the contact points. The felt makes it feel a little bouncier and less solid, but its still fine.

Some closeup views of the contact points
