Stealth suffer from Intamin curse,is it just coincidene?

On screamscape.com it reports that over in Thorpe Park their new ride Stealth is suffering from breakdowns like EVERY other Intamin rocket coaster out there. Xcelerator, Top Thrill Dragster, Storm Runner, Kingda Ka, Stealth ok is it jsut me or does Intamin need to go back to the drawing board before selling another coaster or am I just insane?

By all accounts, Storm Runner and Xcelerator have been fairly reliable.  Not 100%, but much better than the giant rockets have been.

They all have rough starts in their parks.  The stratas just stay unreliable, but the smaller rockets end up breaking in and being decently reliable.
