Then, by this reasoning, autonomous driving is not dangerous either.

  It's more dangerous, and I trust distributed systems (humans) more than a monolith (waymo). Sure, an individual human may from time to time screw up, but there aren't any defects present in every single person just waiting for the right edge case to appear.

    There definitely are! Consider blind spots / limited field of view, slow reflexes, and tendencies towards distracted driving. AVs certainly have bugs, and some may lead to accidents and even deaths, but each one will be examined in an enormous amount of detail to figure out what sort of edge case it was and prevent similar ones from happening.
