To me its counterintuitive that FI engine failures occur at lower rpms. Is there a reason why this occurs?

Torque
FI engines can produce more torque at lower rpm that upper rpm
torque is what breaks rods
part of tuning will be to limit torque (hence power) at lower rpm)
stock engine less than around 300ft lb is usually reasonably safe
