Cracks found in A380 wing ribs

[lomapaseo]

I am a non pilot and a non engineer.

Would it be fair to say that the worst case scenario is that:

1. time consuming and expensive checks will need to be carried out
2. expensive repairs will be required
3. these will add weight
4. this will involve the manufacturer suffering financial penalties from customers

Does anyone assert it will be worse than this?

Experinece is that the result will land someplace between worst case and best case.

Does anybody have a best case scenario as well?
