Fair, though keep in mind the intended audience is the average layperson, which means the bar is set pretty low in terms of the technical nuance of the writing.
Exactly. Try to explain that a .05 difference in carbon content can result in a substantial increase/decrease in tensile strength - eyes glaze over. When the right engine blows eyes unglaze.
That, or how quality analysis can detect things like improper metal crystal formation and other molecular-level defects that impact material integrity and suitability, amongst many other things.

You two are not making me feel safer.
Feel free to check my response below for a detailed answer.
You should. Even exposed to the absolute idiocy of some aircraft mechanics I still love to fly. Safety margins are pretty good.
This falsification was identified because the system works. I would be far more concerned if they never found anything wrong.
