Precisely.
According to the Europa Factory the nosewheel gear leg does all the work, i.
e., flexing, during "normal" landings. The bungee or springs are there to
absorb the load from a really bad landing and therefore should never be
stressed at all. The cable is there simply to limit travel of the arm in
the event of overloading the entire nosegear assembly (which would be
considered more of a crash than a landing).
