Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Since there's nothing you can do about it anyway, best to ride and observe. Use nail polish or touch up paint to fill the crack via the apply and wipe technique. Then you can quickly know if/when the crack begins to grow beyond where you've filled it.

BTW- there's no danger in riding it because it'll grow quite a bit before it breaks, and seatstay breaks are just about the least consequential.
