    You need to look at the big picture here, not individual cases.

    By that logic…

    We should really be investing in trains and buses, not cars of any type.

      I think your logic is flawed. The discussion is about a specific form of transportation. By your own logic, you should be suggesting that people fly everywhere.

        Yes. AI human transformation drones make far more sense. Much easier to avoid things because airspace can be controlled. Just need to figure out how to do efficiently that the ride is more than 5 minutes.

        For long distance maybe, but immediately saying we should all fly everywhere because it has the fewest deaths per passenger mile would really not be looking at the big picture.

          Ah, so you do understand there’s a difference in why someone would chose one type of transportation over another.
