And, not all hank-on jibs are "stored" below. Many, such as what was on my
boat before the furler, are stowed at the forestay.

True enough but even bagged sails like that on deck are way less prone
to come out of the bag and flap in the wind. If the bag is sound the
sail should be pretty safe from the elements. Around here marinas during
hurricane warnings are taking down wind up sails and charging their
customers if the customers don't do it themselves.
