Don’t forget about failure modes driven by out of spec loads, vibration, shock, acoustics, and thermal environments. A launch vehicle can experience higher than expected environments and can transmit those to the satellite or adapter, causing a separation or satellite failure. I’m not saying this happened but its usually a complicated post flight analysis that takes some time.
