I agree with the wind issue; however when your peppers are dragging in the dirt because the plant isn't tall enough causes other issues ... difficult to get a happy medium sometimes!

Proper supports certainly did not help my tomatoes last year (stems were intact and standing, but all leafs were shredded from the plants from high wind) ...
