I've blown out one Campy Mirage sealed BB, but it was old, and I'm sure it was due. Don't forget SKF. I have SKF on 3 bikes, and Phil Wood on my '57 Lenton frame. Like them both, both are adjustable, but I have to say I like the SKF better.

Well conversions are great when you can go from < 700x28 with no chance for fenders to >650b x 33 with fenders. If you are still stuck with 28mm that is going to lower the bottom bracket alot and the ability to run fenders might not be worth the effort. I'm not sure I would even bother with a
