Comey's exposition makes clear that his review of precedent was limited to 793(f) cases.
All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of: clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts to obstruct justice.
That is probably true for 793(f) cases, just like murder 2 requires an intention to kill somebody.
But as the Nishimura case shows, there are other statutes.
I point this detail out so that people recognize the arguments about "intent" (part of the court lore of 793(f)) as avoiding the crime that certainly was committed.
Comey said “facts don’t support 793(f) case.” Nishimura is not a 793(f) case, it is a 1924(a) case.

Thanks for the clarification.
It is possible that Hillary fits into NO classification - as outlined on the video below - the law changes for Hillary (a different threshold).
At 14:56 – topic of Clinton foundation investigation – not addressed in press conference
At 17:40 – topic of laws just for Hillary – special circumstances just for Hillary suggest to Comey that it should not be brought forth for prosecution – the law changes for Hillary Clinton
