I rather doubt even 0.1% of swattings result in deaths, how can you compare that to a 80% chance of survival?

Citation needed. Without going any further SWAT--of what I've read, this was back in 2011--shoots all dogs on sight, as soon as it enters the building, as standard operating procedure.

Number doesn’t matter so much, I just personally don’t want to be swatted. It sounds horrible and traumatizing.
