SMALL piece of FOD? Or a big chunk? Whatever, it shouldn't have been
there.

Frankly that doesnt matter. No single failure should result in the
loss of an aircraft and the FOD simply burst a tyre, something
that is always a possibility. It was the tyre fragments that punctured
the wing tank and the armouring of the tank that removed the
hazard wasnt exactly rocket science.
