This thing is awesome
I think that's a great idea, if the drywall support bar doesn't work, look at cargo dividers as well. They're strong and cheap.
First real usage tomorrow with this setup, but I hauled 2 bikes on it to test it and hit speed bumps etc. and it handled them beautifully. Not to mention this entire solution was a solid $40, and probably could’ve been cheaper if I had shopped more carefully.
For anyone else trying this, do it! Super easy to setup.

Most frames will accommodate a commonly available cargo bar to hold plywood inside of the frame. This is just a quick example I found but these are used in semi trailers all the time and you can get ones specced where the failure limit would likely be beyond the surrounding structure itself. It's more expensive than drilling but they can be re-used, and are handy for many other things. It might even be possible to install inside of windows mark-free with rags on the contact pads. Usually if it isn't a structural modification, and it does not damage the property, they cannot do anything about it. It also makes it very clear it was the landlord being an asshat that led to his windows being broken, not anything LAOP did.
