And if they saw that it would stressed out than it should be mentioned and the billet casing should be included with the OD unit.

So since Pure Turbos increase the boost of the car, should they be responsible for cracked OEM charge pipes, or responsible for providing an upgraded charge pipe free of charge?
Of course not, so why is that applicable here? This is putting undue burden of testing on aftermarket manufacturers. They're not huge companies with deep R&D pockets, they're limited on what they can test, and likely just didn't see this kind of failure in testing because they have limited sample sizing.
Additionally, we don't actually have a proper idea of how prevalent this problem actually is. People who have had no issues with the OD pump likely don't bother saying anything.
