Relatively new aircraft, recent ETOPS approval, technical failure or other; surely there must be some professional safety interest.
Add to that some background problems with the engine (on 747-8)
Three engines damaged during 747-8F ice encounter - 8/22/2013 - Flight Global
Which resulted in an airworthiness restriction for 747-8 and 787
GEnx icing issue prompts 747-8, 787 restriction, route withdrawals - 11/24/2013 - Flight Global
and a potential link with similar threat conditions (ice crystal icing), the same as AF447 (or have we short memories) … …
and a rumour of concern about the other engine.
