> The lifetime odds of dying in a motor-vehicle crash for a person born in 2019 were 1 in 107. These odds suck. Is that really acceptable? Can we do better? We know we can. If we can reduce that number we should.

This is like the old shitty political saying “Something must be done! And this is something, therefore this must be done!” It sucks that driving is so dangerous. That doesn’t mean letting tesla do whatever they want will help improve things. As others have commented, the data on tesla’s safety is apples-to-oranges. It doesn’t mean much of anything.
