Sorry to hear you ended up in hospital, that sucks.
Incredible that three chains snapped, I wonder what the root cause was? What actually snapped, was it a pin or a plate? It’s quite unusual for chains to literally snap, so three is freaky!
For what it’s worth, I have axs on three bikes and it’s been flawless. Although it’s a shimano chain and cassette on the mtb. Sram chains on the other two.

It really is not.
In my short ownership of AXS bikes:
The last one took me to hospital, and broke the Geekhouse. In each case- the RD hanger was checked for alignment, the chain set up properly, the derailleurs indexed correctly.
I'm quite small at 68kg average across the year, and I don't have loads of power.
So IMHO its not worth it, at all, and I do not trust it.
The above pattern is not isolated to me, either.
