This works for fuselage mounted bomb racks, what about the bending relief that you get with wing-mounted bomb racks? You now have two masses attached to either wing which act to reduce the total bending moment at the wing root - i.e. the acceleration x mass forces act in the opposite direction to the applied aerodynamic load. Do you intend to increase the G-limit for those cases or just leave them the same? Just asking.

I'm going to ignore the CofG movement with the added mass - that's different for each plane and probably much more than you intended to consider.
