Just out of curiosity, and from a non-pilot, non-engineer (also NOT a bean-counter)

why is this delamination issue which appears to a complete idiot layman to be very, very, very worrying as it is in the actual fuselage so much less important than the fact that some in-wing fastener points in 'another aircraft' have developed some cracks?

working on "page count" as a measure of "issue seriousness"
the page-count for what appears to be a complete structural failure = 2 (Boeing 787)
the page-count for what appears to be a fixable minor issue = 6 (another aircraft manufacturers product)
