Dave, by breaking most riders probably mean falling apart. I suspect they could care less if it’s actual metal failure or not.

Your point is well taken. However, don’t you think that by making the chains narrower they increase the chance of a thinner side plate coming off a pin?

Thinner side plates = more failures?
