Electric motors have two bearings and easily changed at that.

All electric motors have easily changed bearings? Think you need to get
out more. Besides, when a bearing fails, damage may not be restricted to
the bearing itself.

How many are in an IC engine? *Fifty? Sixty? More increases the chance
of failure.

You missed the fact that bearing failure is most unusual on a modern
engine? But since you are such an expert, perhaps you'd give details of
when this last happened to you or yours?

one went in the series III alternator just after I sold it to the
farmers son.

It was relatively common in turbochargers..

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.

There are no turbochargers on electric motors.
