It just seemed a bit unlikely that there would be two reasons for the one problem, though I agree it's surprising Yamaha were prepared to replace not only the nut but the shaft, particularly after denying there was an issue for a couple of years after it came to light.
There are probably plenty of low mileage Fazers out there still with the original nut, looking back through my records I see I'd changed the chain and sprockets twice and covered 56,000 miles before mine was affected. And my local dealer still looks up the details on his microfiche and would order the old skinny nut if I didn't tell him the correct part number each time.
