Minifigures Arm & Torso Crack Lines

Hi All, I was reading the Kickstarter project for the man who wants to produce Solid Silver Minifigures, and in the description of the process he explained that "The original minifigure relies on the elastic deformation of the ABS plastic for assembly. As older figures age, they will develop cracks along the bottom of the arms and the sides of the torsos from repeated expansion" Does this mean that all our minifigures, even pristine ones still sealed in packets are going to eventually expand and crack? Makes me think twice about buying older minifigs for my collection.
