I mean, when you either negligentally or intentionally push things to destruction through unprofessional actions, yeah they are going to fail.
Blaming the failure on not being able to stand abuse that they should have never been exposed to in the first place and we’re out of their known envelope is sort of silly, don’t you think?
Like saying, yeah, I landed in a left wing low bank, in a slip to the left, on my left main gear, at a descent rate of 2000 from..., and the damn left gear failed.
Who’da thunk???

Again, I'm not disputing the reason(s) the accident happened. To the original posters message: He never said the seal caused the accident.
He said it was the reason for the core lock, which is a matter of legal record. Also, the original message was in the context of maybe the seals on the newer engines on some of the C-Series or Neo's is causing their issues, due to temperature difference. (Expansion/Contraction) He was simply stating a fact and pondering if something similar may be happening.

In unrelated news, Delta has pushed back the inaugural service of the A220 due to the partial government shutdown.

That's great news for the pilots transferring or upgrading but not so for the new-hires. The latter will have to sit and wait even longer on training pay.

The stretch is probably because the A318/319 is going away as it doesn't sell. No idea if that's the case, but it makes sense.
