" Beyond reporting the fact of the failure (which they don't have to do, BTW), they have no basis to draw global conclusions from the reliability of one sample."

I agree about the (lack of) statistical reliability from one sample but it is not true that we do not have to report a failure. Much to the annoyance of several manufacturers, it is Stereophiles policy that reviewers report all failures of equipment submitting, even if the unit is replaced by a fully-functioning sample. The serial numbers of both units is also reported.
