The first rule about the Starling Fallacy is that it is a Fallacy... or the Starling Fallacy Fallacy.
On a slightly more serious note I think Starlings ride well because they are steel and not over built - good design if you will. Also as you note I think the slight bend in the seat stay adds to the bottomless feel of the suspension by aciting like a leaf spring.
