Default Horizontal tail

Paul didn't the L-1011 have the inverted camber on the horizontal? If so was that aimed at getting the landing configuration trimmed out or was it set for crusie. If for landing it could get the moment needed with less deflection. Eliminate the tail stalling out at high deflection??
