Perhaps it wasn't obvious that I was referring to the Maxxis's ST tire as the "new kid on the block". It has only been out there a few years - unlike the Goodyear Marathon and some of the others - and it takes time to develop a full picture of what is going on.
If one has access to more detailed data, then one could construct trend charts, showing length of time in service versus reports of failure factored by the number of tires produced - but we don't have that kind of detail - so skepticism should be the rule when trying to ascertain a particular tire's durability.
