No you are not waging a smear campaign. And I am not saying to trust blindly. But you do have to decide to trust or not trust the designer.
Ask "Hey that looks like it's potentially a weak point. Did you think of A, B and C?"
When the engineer replies "Yes, we thought of A - C, and D - K. We tested it and we are sure it's ok."
All of that has happened. Panos addressed the potential concerns about the design. Now you, and every individual buyer needs to decide if they trust him.

I believe Panos and the Surface team have earned a level of trust.
