Rotary Hell

My NASA friends found this on YouTube a number of years ago.
I remembered its title recently and wanted to share.
Wankel engines are usually known for ↓ this problem.
Push in too much boost and the apex seals leave.
Apex seals are a rotary equivalent to piston rings.

My guess would be "For shits-n-giggles" as I don't know their real reason. I think it was akin to the old problem of a printer running out of ink; cheaper to buy a new printer than to buy new ink.
