It you want to keep your blinders on , that is up to you.

There is no blinders involved. The only "Flaw" I can find is that it is an extremely good fit that will require working it in. I make my living with metal, if I was an idiot I would be pissed because it is too tight, since I have 25 years experience as a metal worker I recognize that it is just extremely well made and will work in to be a superior fit up. The higher quality something is the less tolerance. Seems like it's important to you to bad mouth something you have never seen or held and have no experience with. I spent my money on it, held it in my hands and have others to compare it to. 4 other .308 bolts and around 20 AR15 bolts.
I would not recommend you buy one, as it seems you would prefer a sloppy one size fits everything rather than a match grade part.

Actually C158 bolts fail on a regular basis. I think you will find bolt life in a harsh environment to be something on the order of 5-10k rounds and something like half of them will fail in this range.
Seems to me I read someplace that the govenment considers 5000 rds to be the useful life of the bolt.
When I get home I'll have to see if I can find the story but they recently ran a S7 SRC bolt for something like 80,000 rds without failure. (That could be wrong, but that's what I remember)
I have a few blocks of inconel and have tried to forge some. It just laughed at me.
