Root causes?

Mostly concentrating on the starter.

Improperly installed starter-- incorrect bolts, insufficiently tightened, misaligned
Incorrect starter
Defective/Damaged Starter Gear
Defective/Damaged Starter Bendix
Foreign Material in the bellhousing
Loose Flywheel Bolts
Trying to start the engine when it is already running
Starter not disengaging or kicking in while the engine is running
Letting the starter kick out and back in in one start sequence without letting the engine stop rotating

NOTE: The damage may have been started with a previous starter.
