You say an increase in pressure may break packing loose. Do you really think the timing cover is under pressure? No, it isn't. The galeries are under pressure and there is no packing close to any galeries that are under pressure.
Put your thinking cap on for a bit. Stop trying to be right and really think it through.

As they say there is more used than just the pan. He goes into detail on how it can break lose and get in the channels.
Not a matter of trying to be right. I have a theory and stand by it just as you do yours. Your disbelief and total dismissal of the points such as laid out in the video do not make it wrong.
You keep referring to the silicone that is still bonded. I will try to find the pictures but what people have found was loose chunks of the stuff all through the system. It is not just the oil pan.
