You just landed on one of my pet hates. A hard axle is no stiffer than a soft axle - if the wall thickness and diameter are the same, the stiffness of all steel axles is the same. I'm told that harder axles feel different to drive, but unfortunately I've done sufficient calculation and measurement to not understand by what mechanism. So even if I felt a difference I'd struggle to believe it.

Consequently if I want to stiffen the rear axle, I tend to fit longer hubs. That defintely works, and I even know why.
