I disagree.

Some types of events carry messages beyond cold statistics. For instance, "only a few" foreign student girls have been kidnapped and murdered in the US. But it would be irresponsible to declare that it is safe for the female foreign students in this country. First, some events carry such terrible messages that happening once is too many. Second, you never know to whom it will befall.

Similarly with the management of nuclear or biochemical weapontry.

所有跟帖： 

• 偶發事件確實不成比例地影響人們的決策。如果因為個別女生在美國校園被謀殺就不來美國留學，那就失去了一個機會。 -solo1- ♂ (122 bytes) () 06/04/2022 postreply 10:11:18
