I'll say this isn't a good theory.
Almost all of the P3's with cracked shells is the inside screws on the rear arms. I think they are over tightening the screws at the factory.
My cracks were on the rear arms as well. I get the blade balancing theory but in my opinion the culprit is the combination of the stronger motors on the P3 and the arms that are not designed to be able to handle the extra torque. I think most of the cracks being on the rear arms supports this even more because most of the time you are moving forward and those two rear motors are pulling up constantly more often than the other combinations of motors.
