Nah, it broke "about" as often as the others (making allowances for complications and design differences), it's just that when it broke, it was fixable for a reasonable amount because there was no computer board in it.
A similar but later top loader that I had died almost the same way, but required an entire control board replacement similar to the front loader; too expensive to bother with.
(Now an enterprising person could likely have repaired the control board itself, but that's beyond my "remove and swap" competencies.)
