I can't think of any situation in which your pinky would be taking the brunt of bending forces, and in any case, sheer strength doesn't imply control. It will also depend on what kind of strings you use. I play 11's and 12's routinely, so even though I'm a pretty strongly built dude and I can control those strings well, I doubt I'd be able to outbend someone who plays 8s.

TL;DR - Isn't this a bit pointless?
