Every place I've ever camped in the snow has had a plethora of sites so if one is too terribly off level I could easily find another. Never camped at a ski resort though.

You had me searching for Ski Chalet as a brand of chock. I get your point. But then, the place I go has no highfalutin chalet... only a parking lot. And I have a TT that offers numerous conveniences admittedly at the cost of some other inconveniences.
With infinite resources, we could all be infinitely endowed so we wouldn't need the input on a forum like this. I don't live in that world.

I personally would not want a wheel under my hitch. Manoever it into position and leave it there.
Now in my mind I see a triangle, where the weight meets ground at tire, (A) where the jack meets ground, (B) and where jack is attached to tongue. (C). Now the point A should be set so it can't move when you unhook, or the trailer can roll away. And the distance A-C is set when trailer built/loaded. The angle at C is set when the jack is mounted. When you crank the jack down to unhook, you set the lengths of A-B and B-C. But a RV trailer, we want the floor level, so we start changing the length of B-C. With a wheel at B, that lets the length A-B also change, no issue. But the angle at C takes more force as the length A-B resists the change in length.

Something I always think of when I see/hear of a RV trailer set down with out wheel on the jack;.....
Have you seen a lot of TT with jack wheels?
My TT did not come with a wheel on the jack... same with everyone we know with a TT.
A few people I've talked to, including RV dealers, said they don't want a jack wheel to help prevent the TT from moving.
The only trailers that I always see jack wheels on are boat trailers.
