Produced 2007~2013. The interesting line is "may corrode and
fail". Not the usual, "may crack and fail". CPSC reports
exactly one incident with injury.

Profile is one of the best stems I've used. Corrode and fail?

One stem is better than another, failures aside?

Yes, the lighter one's are usually better designed and better built. The cheaper one's are a lot heavier and they do not fit the bar properly and can dent the handlebar. I never allowed them to do that but I wouldn't trust them.
