Shady or not, I think the main question is simple:

Which is a safer choice for my car, having the recall performed or not having the recall performed?

Right now the data points towards the latter.

US region valve spring failures: 11
US region recall failures: 40?

Certainly not every failure is sure to have been from the recall work, but there must also be failures that were not reported to this forum. It may not be possible to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, but it's as certain to me as it can be that the recall work has caused more failures than the actual valve springs.
