Is anyone else appalled by this "Political Correctness" Speak?

The incidents occurred when blades failed earlier than predicted by Rolls-Royce’s risk analysis modelling for the known issue.
Blades aren't designed to fail! And in normal circumstances would have been replaced long before their use-by date. Rolls Royce has been aware of this issue for years. Plenty of time to fix the issue.
