Thanks for the reply here and below. My question was more in the vein of your answer below. If there are models that are known to fail, how do you learn about them? I.e. the owner of a LBS recently claimed that pre-2018 Capras \(and YT frames in general\) were prone to crack. My internet search didn't yield all that much info on that.
Another thing is warranty. Not applicable when you buy used, but when you buy new \(even a model several years old\). I have had several frames warrantied after 4 years or so, so I'm kind of concerned when I see a company offering only a 2 year-warranty.
