Another thought, not knowing how the different panels are installed and thus the benefit of the different shapes for strength, if you look at the deflection equation of a center force sitting on a beam supported on both ends, (relating a side panel supported by the vertical roof supports and the potential deflection at the center of the space between the posts due to wind load) the "height" of the "beam", thinking about a vertically mounted 2x4 vs 2x8 or whatever, that element is of the 3rd power whereas other parameters are first or second.
So a 2x4 vertically mounted (4" height) widget would have a height factor of 64. Doubling the height to a 2x8" gives a factor of 512 and tripling the height to 2x12" gives 1728. So if a 64# weight caused an initial deflection of 1" on the 4" beam, it would take a 512# weight to get 1" deflection on the 8" and a 1728# weight to get 1" on the 12". So, wind load resistance could be drastically improved by the shape of the beam.
Therefore, if the Zee or Receiver panels, due only to their cross sectional "width" difference for the same size, when installed amounted to a thicker dimension, your wind resistance would follow the above numbers and get stronger really fast.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
