: Is there is a better way?

When a gearbox goes out or when a pinned shaft shatters, you don't have to just change the motor.

If you design the motor within an assembly, you can have a spare assembly made up, ready to install into your robot if something goes wrong with the motor/gearbox/pin arrangement.

This way, it doesn't matter how risky your attachment to the gearbox shaft is.
