HF Yagi-Uda designs which have performance that falls apart if the end of the element moves an inch are probably not "robust"

RIGHT! This is one thing that separates good antenna designs from the not so good ones. N6BT has written about this in his self-published "Array of Light."

FWIW, I would expect the primary effect of the tower (and other surrounding conductors) to be filling in nulls, and potentially to affect VSWR.
