WAY more often than Chinese carbon fiber stuff...

Just noticed this after thinking my wheel was out of true. It was making some knocking when spinning the wheel and feathering the brake. Ran my finger across brake surface and felt this it bumps out ever so slightly from the surface.

Asked to speak to warranty department directly as I had photos to send in if need be and he said they wouldn't look at them.
I challenge
anybody here to rebut my position that,
There is no correlation between cost and fallibility by posting
links and pix like these (
and these).
Your rebuttals
MUST show cheap Chinese
Chipps (
or ChipoRinis or SpeChiRizeds or Chinondales) that have catastrophically failed similar to the name brand products in those RBR links. Otherwise, you're just talkin' out the side of your neck by propogating urban myth.
I hope you like the taste of crow
