I had been using the newer EI's for some time when I came accross this statement. I'm not even sure which one they are talking about. The new ones are long plates, there are NOS w/short plates, there are long silverish plates and long gray plates. I don't recall any warning from Cal. I've used them all in my Alpha and Sigma and they are both still chugging right along. I changed my electronics and speakers a few years ago and I re-planted my EH's in the Alpha and found I preferred the bottom end (fuller) than any of the EI's in it.
FWIW.
