Well, in fact it doesn't rock on my instrument. But I agree that it isn't a 100% (or nearly) certain fix - probably not very durable on an instrument being used on a daily basis - and that rebuilding the tenon with metal or wood or hard rubber would be the stronger, more permanent option. Still, I'm assuming the end of the tenon needs to be taken down on a lathe anyway to fit a sleeve, so trying to extend the cork maybe doesn't lose anything as a first step attempt.
