But the MM who is short is given a very strong reason to not treat a stock fairly, is
he not? How is that "making for an orderly market"?
If the MM is doing all he can to avoid a financial loss with a stock, then a stock is
not really subject to market forces, is it?

Maybe true, but if a stock has many MM's, not all will be in the same boat as let's say one that get's caught short. They won't worry about someone else if they're taking on water. They're only interested in making money for themselves.
