I appreciate your advice. Now I have a better idea where I stand.
Hhmm, what do you mean the other side? I don't think I can say what it's like from the other side, can I?
So in conclusion, you don't even think that cutting this sprocket off and welding on a new one could be a semi-permanent solution (let's say, another 15-20k).
May be a problem with installing a new shaft in this part of the world and I don't plan on going west for another year or two. Probably the next place I can have it done is Japan, but first I need to put some more miles on the bike.
As a last resort I can just leave the damned sprocket as it is and keep changing chains every 10k before they die (that's the mileage I done on the current chain).
So to weld or not to weld, that is a question?
