Since sailplanes overbank in steep turns applying the required opposite
aileron would then create even more adverse yaw.

One reason that the Carbon Dragon has full-span flaperons is that they
are driven from the root end only, avoiding the need to clutter the
wing structure with pushrods, cables, pulleys, etc.
