Default Traxxas 3.3 engine any better in 2020 ?

I just ordered a brand new Traxxas 3.3 T Maxx earlier today just wanting to get back into the hobby its been a long time.
After doing a little bit of research it seems that the 3.3 engines had major issues, some blowing up immediately after brake in. Allmost everything I could find on the subject was dated way back from 2005 to 2015.

So after 15+ years of manufacturing the 3.3 engine are they still defective? How could Traxxas use this engine for nearly 20 years and not do anything to solve the issues that this motor has? Or has Traxxas quietly fixed the problem over time?

Should I be worried about my new 3.3 T Maxx engine even in 2020?
