    Although I like the sentiment, I assume it’s not the rate that it considers equal for the outcome, but the absolute number of occurrences, right?

    Which is a bit misleading, since of course there are a lot of schoolchildren, the absolute number of shootings is going to be higher for them than for a small number of billionaires.

    Same thing as the cows kill more people than sharks metric. We simply interact a lot more with cows
