You are right about the data. The data is unfortunately submitted by individuals who are such overwhelming fans of Tesla FSD that they are willing to voluntarily submit after-action reports and is thus extremely biased towards Tesla and should be taken as a upper bound at best.

It is unfortunate that there is no higher quality source of data as the manufacturer deliberately hides their data and only publishes deliberately deceptive, juvenile, and unscientific reports that disregard even basic scientific requirements you learn to apply in high school such as error bars.

If you care to present a robust, representative, auditable, high-sample dataset supporting your apparent assertion that the numbers are dramatically higher, be my guest. And no, arguing that there is no available high quality data thus you get to claim whatever number or safety you want without evidence is not a valid argument.

That the manufacturer is unable to present any scientifically sound data to support their assertions, and in fact only producing deliberately deceptive conclusions, despite literal billions of miles, billions of dollars, and years of work is enough to switch the burden of proof onto them.
