B&D - All of the scenarios you lay out above are valid, and any one could indeed account for a generator failure. However your statement here summarizes the whole sitation very nicely: "Had the installation been engineered, new condition matched components and some rpm. It would still be in service." Therefore expecting a generator to work well and live long while controlled by a non-matched regulator to deliver double it's engineered voltage is an uncertain situation at best. (Incidentally when we opened the toasted generator on my buddy's MM we found it's insides to be in excellent shape - even the brushes and commutator. Aside from the burned field winding insulation it looked nearly new...)
