Another one died because a poorly designed chain tensioner.

I'm guessing you have read all my links to the american forum on this issue.

It's nothing to do with oil level or oil quantity.
It's a rachet on the chain tensioner fails,
The car rests overnight etc.
You go start the car
There's little to no tension on the chain
The chain slips jumps a few teeth before the car starts
The car starts, the oil pressure rises and the chain now tensions
The chain timing is now a couple teeth out.
Ecu compensates by changing cam timing.
Car runs but badly.
Engine gets damaged, valves, pistons, etc due to collision.
Bad tensioner design its been updated a few times.
Bad Ecu programming allowing the car to run or be turned over.
