Is it possible? Sure... It's possible that a meteor will squash me this afternoon, too. There's no denying, though, that no bit of this recent run pipe dream makes sense.
Has everything you have observed in life made sense? I agree that the probability of a fresh run of struts is unlikely but why not verify this instead of assuming it?
