Over the course of the pandemic this threshold was crossed for a lot of people.

Take away over 30%(!) of births in some regions and you'll see similarly plummeting figures. It's even worse if you consider that many of those births in the "German" column are to foreign mothers with German citizenship.
...?
Although I'll concede that I'm now wondering what's preventing compromised hardware from faking this part too. A complex malware could even receive firmware updates, dump them in an unused partition, and report to the connected host that it promises that it's definitely running that firmware, right? Hmmm.
> All Trezor devices are distributed without firmware installed - you will need to install it during setup. This setup process will check if firmware is already installed on the device. If firmware is detected then the device should not be used.
>The bootloader verifies the firmware signature each time you connect your Trezor to a computer. Trezor Suite will only accept the device if the installed firmware is correctly signed by SatoshiLabs. If unofficial firmware has been installed, your device will flash a warning sign on its screen upon being connected to a computer.

There seems to be an element of user carelessness and naivety here. Anyone who follows Trevor's hardware verification checks surely needn't worry about these attacks.
Or would you concede that there is a genetic element in the gender disparity? And would you then also recognise that factor in the racial disparity?
I also want to add that if the violent crime rate of White men was the biggest problem we faced as a society, well what a wonderful problem that would be to have. That would be a utopia compared to the challenges being faced by non-White and increasingly multiracial populations around the world right now.
It's so difficult to find something that is the right size and shape to hold them upright, allowing organising, sifting through them to find the one I need, etc. The repackaging shown here is nice, but I don't want them ultimately stuffed into a drawer, nor can I see myself going to the effort - especially the part where I'd need to enter them all into a database.
