Yes: paranoia.
Last year was our first year ever trying a truly different drive train, and we wanted to make sure that, whatever else happened, we could still drive around.
We created a weighted table of priorities for an upgraded drive train for this year, and "as robust" topped the list. To be honest I'm not sure whether or not we're at "overkill" on this, as none of my mentors are metals experts. Thus, I consult the gestalt crowd-source resource of Chief Delphi.
