I disagree, it's way too easy to fuck the frame with some over enthusiastic turning. The fact that the carbon guys have had to sort so many they can predict the exact problem from a vague description of a Cannondale a few months after they go on sale means they've done something wrong.

I know what you're saying. It's a dumb design.
There will be many people with broken frames but ultimately in riding conditions it doesn't break on its own. OP crashed, that's not a warranty issue.
I know full well that it only broke because of the design but warranties cover manufacturing defects, not damage caused by use outside of the intended, aka crashing

Crashing caused it. That’s not a warranty issue. Stupid design or not
