I gave you so many heads ups I can't count. I would still rip it out and redo cause "IT'S MY FREAKIN BOAT AND I WANT IT RIGHT AND SAFE."
Your job is to research and make decisions with good information and bad information.
BTW......I've been there done that too!
I asked about it in October which I linked to earlier and then I asked again in February:

I am doing what I was guided to do. Your advice was very much appreciated but came 5 days ago for the first time when you asked why the multiple pieces of 1/4" plywood:

By that time I had already made the multiple layers for the transom.
So in my eyes I did the research as best I could and made good decisions based on WOG's recommendation. I said before that much of the trouble was because I didn't remove the entire back part of the cap to expose the whole transom area, and WOG instructed me to do that back in October, so that is all on me. But even though I didn't follow your instructions which I've already said is probably the way to go if others are researching this at the beginning of their rebuild, I don't think I'm being unsafe building it as a single piece as was recommended multiple times.
I appreciate your opinion as I've said already and so since it is my boat and I made the decision, the outcome is on me. So let's move on to bigger and better things.
