that's the thing - consequence is not that big? failure just results in a jump in deviation. damage limited to parts that you would change anyways. change in deviation is not significant enough to create valve/piston interference. as opposed to failure of timing chains (and ims) that can make things go bang. that's why yes you should fix it, but don't mothball the car in the interim.
