"Numbers" are easy to com up with. Reliable information is less easy.

On a thread a while back dealing with EV fires, someone posted an online insurance company graphic on the number of car fires that overstated the number of ICE car fires by a factor of 10 or more. A car magazine posted a lengthy article dealing with just that subject and that graphic in particular. This article meticulously went through the available data and laughingly concluded if ICE car fires occurred at the rate per that graphic, you could not drive to work without saying "Whoops! There's another car fire!"
