These cars were NOT designed for e85, they may handle it so far, but unless u are a toyobaru engineer behind the design of the fuel system or have owned one longer than the normal wear life expectancy of our current pumps, you're wrong.

Use your search button and you'll find a thread talking about a disintegrated fuel pump filter that the OP attributes to his e85 usage.
wrx, vette, evo, bmws were not made for e85 either but i know tons of ppl who run them with e85 and havent had any issues aside from fuel filters. That was only because they didnt get a new one after switching to e85

as far as the fuel filter failing how do you know it wasn't a crap filter from the get go and that the 10% eth wouldn't have caused a problem? another thing nothing is 100% pump gas or corn juice. crap is always going to fail no way around it.
