Hi Ed,
To your question as to what characteristic(s) of the high lead-content solder 
makes it vulnerable to the transition from eutectic SnPb to SAC305, here are 
some examples:
1) SAC is stiffer (higher modulus)--results in higher stresses;
2) SAC creeps slower--results in higher stresses;
3) SAC is stronger--results in higher stresses.
