Thank you for the TLDR. Was there no time on the schedule, in the many, many, ~~~~many years of lead up and cashing NASA checks, when Boeing could have stress tested those seals to failure?
Depends on a lot of things. Most orgs will use published data for what they’re choosing to use. More or less standard hardware is less likely to be sent to MR&D for testing
