Every Airbus and Boeing engine is held onto the wing by 8 bolts, not 2. Four bolts at the forward mount, four bolts at the aft mount. The post may be referring to the Thrust link which has 2 bolts. But as there are 2 thrust links per engine each engine has 4 thrust link bolts https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/23151/how-are-engines-mounted-onto-wings#73049

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1860448570446610562

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
