I think these type accidents can happen even if you do hitch your chain to the drawbar. it seems i read an article about this once and one example given was where a chain was tied to the drawbar correctly and the object that was being pulled was much lower than the tractor.( a log in a deep ditch or pulling something up the side of a creek bank). in this case there would be considerable down pressure on the drawbar, creating the same effect as hitching to high. if the tractor and what you are pulling are both on the same level,then what you say is right. but there are some circumstances where hitching to the drawbar isn't always foolproof
