It's not a matter of which is stronger, but what type of force are you talking about. It's not a draft load that causes tongue failure, it's tongue weight.

Two point type hitching puts the tongue weight on the lift arms. Lift arms are much better suited for carrying that type of load. It's the reason they're there. I have wondered for some time now why no one makes a cart with a two point hitch. The only thing I can figure on it is it must be too hard to make clearance for the PTO driveshaft.
