The pinch welds are stronger and stiffer than the sheet metal on either side. That's why all car manufacturers designate them as the best lift points on unibody cars.

The lift blocks that straddle pinch welds and load the horizontal sheet metal next to them were designed by people who don't know structural design, sorry to say.
