Very true, anytime stress is placed on a part it could weaken it enough to lead to complete failure down the road. Sometimes it is more immediate and easily noticed. I remember reading an article in a magazine around the time the Carrera Gt was released. An automotive jounalist misshifted and over-revved the to extremely high engine speeds....to the tune of 14,000 rpm when Porsche checked the computer. The result was immediate engine failure. Hopefully if my engine ever gives out it will be within the next 5 and half years so it will be covered by my warranty.
