Parallel to the frame (rectangle) wouldn't allow as much articulation vs triangulated.
The combination of triangulated mounting, I-beam construction, & rubber lined metal sleeves allowed the solid mounted rear some amount of flex for typical driving.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
