I think this is probably more of an issue for people who are regular/heavy users of the large D# bodies, I tend to look on the D200 as a container for the sensor to clip on the back of whatever lens I am using and tend to carry and handle the lens rather than the body when it's a heavy lens like the 80-200 or the 300 f2.8.
That said, my old trombone 80-200 has no tripod bush so the relatively heavy lens is hanging off the mount.
That's true for longer lenses but I was using the 24-70. Even the 17-35 feels imbalanced.
If you put either of these lenses on a D3 it sits on the camera base. Put them on the D750 and the body tips forward to rest on the lens. It's this forward out of balance that imparts rotation around the handgrip in use. It may be small but I feel this instability. Putting a battery grip on the bottom may restore that balance.
