Yes. The aerodynamics may throw off the moth; especially depending on when the wings were "removed." The wings could be an adaptive process to learn to work with, the importance of the tail is not mentioned; if a dog is born with three legs, it learns to live without it, if you "remove" a leg from a grown dog there is an adaptation process time. Also, the level of critical importance is not discussed; i.e. is it super critical like the tail on a plane or minor like my hair.
