If a CF fork does not pass a dropout alignment test, then it's defunct.

CF does flex, as illustrated by the Cannondale Scalpel which uses the flexing of the CF chainstays as an integral part of the rear suspension.

CF forks are supposed to flex some small amount. This gives you a nice plush ride. But, they are supposed to flex back to a nicely aligned position.
