Is it safe to use Noodler's Baystate colours in Lamy pens?

We know of two incidents of customers' pens failing, plus a lot of anecdotal evidence, that suggest that Noodler's Baystate inks an somehow degrade the material from which Lamy makes its feeds (plastic part that holds the nib). We therefore suggest that Noodler's Baystate inks are not used in Lamy pens. No other manufacturers' pens appear to be affected.
