That's my point. Comparing the safety record to other commercial planes is kinda pointless, since so few were built and they were used so little (and even then, one managed to crash and burn). If the 737-MAX had seen the same use, I'm sure we'd never had uncovered the design issue that caused the crashes either. And "any other commercial airliner" includes planes like the 787 and the A380, which have literally never had an incident with fatalities.
