JD subcompact/compacts are toys with crap crank cases... aluminum junk!
My compact is a Kioti CK30 and its a tank...
Im in deere country for AG.. my farmer grew up working on them before he started tilling... he owns a kubota compact for light use tho ag equipment is green.
Look at stats... the answer is always in the stats.
Can you point me to these stats of which you speak? I just googled John Deere aluminum crankcase and didn't see anything that stood out as an issue. Do you have any recommended reading on that?
