Please re-read my post - I said I was speculating; I did not say I could prove. But, by way of explanation, it's really very simple - some people have stock & SOD, some have stock & no SOD. That implies it's not software. sounds exactly like Mogul BT issues - some devices had problems regardless of stock version, some never did have issues. If people are using the same software and some have issues, and some don't - what's the variable? Hardware.
And if it's shown up more with the 6.5 stock, a very feasible explanation could be that a modified driver has different timing conditions that stress a HW tolerance more than in 6.1. I'm speaking as a former ebedded HW/SW engineer - timing issues, race conditions, and mfg tolerances DO exist and are B--ch to find and fix!!!
BTW, I've never had a SOD with either 6.1 or 6.5 stock, or a zillion customs, and several different cards.
BTW, others feel the same way:
