Than there is the problem of too much oil leakage and resulting fire overheating the disk and it's attachment shaft to the point of burst before it even has a chance to move aft.

Thus the fix is to minimize a short term oil leak of this magnitude.

Obviously a lesson for all manufacturers in their quality control efforts.
