Default Cases in which crypts may melr.

Hey everyone, I'm a bit confused and I know crypt experts like you can help me.
I've read that c. wendtii doesn't like its roots disturbed, now if I was to put a nutritious tab near it, and my fingers pushed the roots a little (not uprooting it or anything) or if I was to plant something else near the crypt and that would imply me touching its roots, would the crypt melt in this case, or is the melt a consequence of more serious disturbances such as uprooting, changing water quality too much or transferring to a new tank?
Of course we are talking about underwater wendtii here,
Thanks a lot.
And also, how long does it take a crypt to start melting after a disturbance?
