You probably know more than I do in regard to this area; but I'm learning fast.
As for Bebe's her failure was not due to excessive backlash or lapping compound. The only real lapping compound problems I have heard of are the early rear axles, and not all were affected. And, as you state, the noise gets people in at around 3-4K.
