Breakable "fixates"

I've noticed there's a lot of suggestions for breakable fixates, and even more people saying it's impossible with the mechanics of the fixates. There's a simple way of doing this that most people have overlooked; hinges can have a 0rpm motor speed. So, you can just set the hinge to motor, the motor speed to zero, the motor torque to +inf, and the impulse break limit to whatever you want.

That's actually very well know here, and it still isn't a good substitute. Hinges tend to stretch.

It can still twist if you apply enough force on it

Yea, this isn't the best method of achieving what you want.
