You might as well say “never fly”.

These accidents are terrible but so rare that it simply isn’t worth it for a passenger to worry about them.

If you are that risk-averse, you shouldn’t be flying at all. Or doing much of anything else either.

Still safer than Uber on autopilot!!!

Correct. US airlines fly almost one trillion passenger miles each year and this is the first fatality since 2009.

Exactly so.
