Two thoughts...

Vibration may not be the best word. I used it to make the point that IMSB is not purely rotational. There are side forces that contribute to loading. The article you referenced hit the nail on the head - spalling is is the path to failure. The rate of spalling is inversely proportional to loading, which explains the higher OEM single row failure rates. That is, higher single row point loadings lead to increased spalling compared to dual row bearings

In some sense, the IMS Solution is the biggest roller bearing possible. It provides the largest surface area to distribute bearing load.
