Obviously not in the same way. Overall system failure rates comparing cable vs digital throttle control - I have no idea. I do know that I can’t remember the last time I drove a car with a bad idle, which is much more than anyone who lived in 80s can say. Also: throttle by wire permits simpler cruise control integrations, better fuel economy and also facilitates the operation of safety systems like traction/stability control - so it’s not exactly a like-for-like comparison.
