I see. That would seem to make sense- in other words, a curved fork provides tighter handling because you are essentially steering directly under the wheel vs. out in front of your wheel, yes?

Completely wrong. As others have noted repeatedly, but you apparently are not grasping, whether a fork is straight or curved, the wheel is in the same place if the offset (sometimes incorrectly called rake) of the fork is the same.
