It still remains to be seen whether the design as intended works or not.

Good point well made - hhmm where did I miss that vital bit of evidence
The rotational movement they are designed to restrict though, is about the propshaft axis not the driveshaft axis. The type of failure Nathan has experienced exibits all the hallmarks of a failure about the driveshaft axis, the cause of which has been encountered by others as poor diff mounting and constraint of movement of the diff nose.
This failure is due to poor diff constraint but perhaps due to technician error rather than design.
