That's a useless statistic in this context. Statistically you're more likely to be killed by yourself than someone else. So, do you kill yourself to get it over with? Do you let a shooter shoot you because statistically it's better that the gun is on their hands than yours? Ridiculous, right?

It's just a zero insight use of numbers.

That's literally my point. I did exactly what you did, just in a different context to point out the absurdity of the statement.
