It has already been confirmed that it is an LNE ceramic bearing, so this is not even worthy of discussion. I'm appalled by how quickly some of our members are to demonize anyone that doesn't worship Jake and/or LNE.
MB Motorsports has nothing but good reviews and personally, I feel that information regarding IMSB failures can only benefit the community.
Jake is also very valuable to the community.

BTW: I fully agree with your comment that debris in the oil will kill a perfectly good IMSB once it contaminates the bearings / race(s)
Are we confusing the ball cage/shield for a seal? I think so
