Just a slight impostor here but reading this and other accidents the MGB sudden seizure tears the whole assembly out of the top?

If so is there any way of making a shear ring that would fail but leave the blades attached ?

I know it's a wild stab in the dark but there appears to be no redundancy if it fails.

Like the old safe life on fixed wing structures .
