let's just make one thing clear. there is no FAA requirement to ensure that an engine separates to save a fuel tank. lest we would have jetison switches to selectively drop one on an orphanage.

The only requiremet is that the critical aircraft structure for flight have a minimum or greater level of capability.

In crash impact (not a landing) all things are possible
