I have actually never seen a broken Fender neck
but I am sure you are right.
The problem with repairs is that most folk won`t pay
the labour charges for a proper job with spliced in
re-enforcements and a good re-finish. Hence there are dozens of
poorly repaired necks around.

Fenders have a gentler break at the nut, no? Hence the butterfly string guide to hold down the 1st and 2nd strings. I think the original idea was that they could cut more necks from a given piece of wood. Leo Fender, the Henry Ford of guitar manufacture.
