LIPM is everywhere in legged-locomotion control, but almost always as a modeling choice rather than as something the controller's cost actually prefers. This note tries to make that link more explicit. Working from a small centroidal OCP that penalizes the rate of angular momentum, we look at what its optimum tends to look like. Three things come out. With full-rank stance, the optimum drifts toward a pendular force pattern at a rate determined by the SVD of the moment Jacobian; the constant is set by foot-span geometry and matches the experiments to within 16%. With N=2 stance, as in trot, the friction cone introduces a lower bound on $\|\dot{H}_G\|$ that no amount of weight tuning fixes; we also see a non-smooth feasibility kink at a critical horizontal acceleration that we can write in closed form. Adding a task term that asks for a nonzero $\dot{H}_G$ moves the optimum off the pendular set in a predictable way. None of this is far from the classical ZMP/DCM picture. We test these claims on a point-mass quadruped and on the Unitree Go1 in MuJoCo (open-loop QP and a torque-level closed-loop controller), and we note where the asymptotic story stops being a good description of what the closed loop actually does.
