@Wickus,

if the elastic on your pants wears out and finally snaps, it is not EVERY inch on that elastic that snaps and separate, it is certain places, weak point, that give.

Same with rock layers and the like. Weak point break first. Sinkholes happen in places, not the whole state at once. Crevasses very much happen in places, pulling apart while the sides of the crevasse are firm.
