This whole article seems to talk about policy and regulation while ignoring the natural chaos/order to the world. There are too many myths/stories/recent lessons where we have learned that mankind cannot control nature. The more we try, the more devastating it can be. Also another reason why the most noble thing is when one sacrifices their own life for another.
To even consider putting a cost/benefit on life is a fool's errand. There's no satisfactory solution to the trolley problem(Unless self-sacrifice is allowed) nor absolute to the potential of one's life(including your own). The titanic is an overused example, but those who sacrificed their lives can be thought as reaching immortality given their names and story continue to be told and learned from. Many more lives were saved because of their sacrifices beyond those saved at the time.
I can't help but feel these viewpoints are very egotistical/selfish concerned about individual happiness and comfort while ignoring the inevitable of our deaths and the future of our species thriving alongside the ever-changing world without us.
