Must admit, I'd never read the ATSB report, but the contained failure bit made me laugh. Having seen the EK aircraft after the event, if that is defined as uncontained, then gawd elp us!

At the time, I'd spoken to some CX engineers about the incident & they were quite concerned as to the amount of damage to the opposite engine. Is there a case for "Concorde syndrome" here?
