No, generally the players who have or claim to have instruments "blow out" are working professionals - not clueless newbies.

The phenomena is real to the people involved; the cause is not certain - it could be physical changes to the instrument, or psychological or physiological changes to the player. It doesn't mean the instrument is worthless, just that it no longer suits the performer. "Blown out" might not be the best descriptive set of words to use ... but it doesn't mean that all claims are to be dismissed out of hand. That would be just as scientific as accepting all claims.
