Who said they don't.Only 2 left for the dealers.The rest were picked up in production.You could say it was "human error".These engines are ran and hot tested before they are shipped,but when your bench testing an engine with a larger cooling system volume than the actual vehicle's cooling system they simply dont overheat during testing.I think the most impressive thing is that the machining is so precise that they can run without a headgasket and not leak.I've seen them leaking with a gasket.
