Hi Will

Just to be 100% clear about this answer, are you saying that methods 
that return more than one object don't return failed variants (in v61 
and all previous versions) but in v61 you can call the method 
include_failed_variations on the adaptors? If i am reading that right 
you dont need to check the data returned by the adaptors for failed 
variants as they are excluded by default.
