No, I didn't misunderstand. The issue is the crack. That can be caused by stresses latent in the rock itself. Those stresses can be temperature induced and present long before it was quarried. Just because you didn't expose it to any "extremes" doesn't mean that the rock has lead a "sheltered life." Realistically it was exposed to stressors beyond our ability to appreciate. Unfortunately in your piece, they are now just revealing themselves.

Ok, I got your point. Whatever the cause I hope CA fix the crack. I will lap it today and try to one of my auxiliary razors.
Thank you
