Most people wouldn't expect this damage to be covered under warranty. Think of it like this, if you took that bike off road and bunny hopped some tree roots, a few boulders ect this type of damage could/would probably occur. That would be considered misuse and a collision...a collision with the ground in a way not intended by the manufacturer when the bike was produced.
But you still refuse to see there is any other way of looking at this, so I don't know what else to tell you. Too bad your frame broke, next time buy a mountain bike to bunnyhop obstacles with.
