What is your opinion on upgrading to the IMS Solution. Is the extra money worth it?

I did a search after I posted my question. Backwards, I know.... & know better. Anyway, the Solution is twice the cost and a lifetime fix. You'll break even with the Solution at 100,000 miles of install. The Solution appears to be the best fix yet and once you do it your IMS bearing concerns are over. However, as thstone has found, there are several other ways to blow up an engine besides the IMS bearing.
