So they took a bunch of engines into the test lab and tried to get them to mis-behave. Only to everyone's amazement they all ran perfectly. It wasn't until later that Graham realised that the engines they'd been given were effectively 'blue-printed'. When they checked the tolerance on the production engines they were all over the place--hence their appalling durability.
Enough said!
