The decision for me to keep buying was based on them putting the movements into their most iconic bread and butter sub. I figured Rolex in 2020 surely won’t risk their subs being reported as having issues when they’ve known about the problem since 2016….
At this point I want to create that Star Wars meme with the girl asking “you’ve fixed the movement right?”

I'm hearing you.
Keep in mind that Rolex couldn't have realised there was a problem until well after introduction as it took time for it to emerge and it takes even longer for a trend to be established which they can act upon.
And yes, it's taking an extra long time than anybody imagined to rectify.
As our esteemed watchmaker friend has intimated. There are a good number of watchmakers who are scratching their heads over this. Regardless, they get paid the same amount to rectify these things under warranty or not and in accordance with the mothership's directives.
As you note, it ultimately comes down to who pays.
Besides your warranty is already paid for up front at the time of purchase. So you can sleep soundly in the knowledge that all the warranties which I have paid for up front over the years and never claimed on has subsidised yours numerous times over.
So I hope you will be able to qualify for some goodwill on the part of Rolex should it eventuate that this issue is "prepetual". After all Rolex is known for goodwill gestures and they aren't unreasonable in general.
In Rolex we trust
