You would spend your entire life in court facing overblown claims, and end up losing your shirt in the process, even if you won every case. So you limit your liability to the value of your component. Common commercial liability exposure limitation.
Agreed. I don't know of any manufacturer that covers consequential damages, or anything more than the part itself.

Yes I have already looked at it.

P.S. I know you're not a fan of EPS, but their RMS bearing fix you referred to in an earlier post does not require machining. You just press in a bearing and then a seal.
