I don't understand this information about a wall-mounted shelf from Ikea. It gives the maximum weight per shelf, then says this: "Max. load refers to the max. weight before the shelf is risking to slant. Distribute the weight evenly on the shelf to avoid the risk of slanting."

The same phrasing is used for several different wall shelves. What does "the shelf is risking to slant" mean? Does "risking to" mean that there's a risk? To me that sounds different in severity from a "maximum weight," which sounds serious. What potential consequence is meant by "slant?" Do they mean it may sag in the middle? Do they mean that it may pull out of the wall? Do they mean it may slant like a teeter-totter on one of the supports as an axis, and dump everything off at one end? Do they mean the front edge will slant downwards and dump everything off all along the shelf?
