Not exactly that dramatic. If I do hit a large road debris while under full boost, the wastegate bracket will bend toward the turbine housing forcing the flapper door to open and release boost. I don't think it's possible to scrape the actuator over bumps, because it's currently sitting as high as the exhaust. I do get your sentiment though and will take your warning with caution.
