Stop the 50i/N63tu bashing

It's now over 97000 miles & 4 years of flawless 50i performance on my 2014 F15. My 2004 4.4 did almost 200,000 miles with exactly one expensive fix, an oil pump. So many negative comments about this beast of an engine in the various threads, mostly from non 50i owners. I check these threads regularly, always great info from others that make ownership of an F15 a special experience. Have not once read where a 50i owner has regretted the choice or any horror stories that would be cause for concern. Anyone know where this bad reputation of engine issues, an engine to be avoided, started? Seems like for some, having to add a quart or 2 of oil between oil changes is the beginning of the end.
