    The absence of immediate evidence to the contrary does not in any way make   
   " some   
   design flaw or maintenance issue of the other engine" likely.  It is   
   possible I suppose, but not likely.  Remember, "conventional wisdom" is   
   sometimes spectacularly wrong, but it is dangerous to bet against it.
