The engine manufacturers anticipate some level of damage to the fan tips (bird/ice etc. ) and tend to make engines that don't quit immediately with such damage. The result is the engine turbines have to work harder and hotter so you may use up their life quicker. But here we have a chance to be patient and see what's in the report.

I will be very disappointed if all I see in the headlines is the criticism of crew an/or ATC
