Interesting subject often overlooked in our humanist (as valuing human life over everything) societies. On the subject, the bias I have found the most often when discussing it is when someone says that « a life has no price, everything should be done to save it ». Such views often results in overlooking real risks and focusing on fears. Even if I agree that value is not cost, having a number is better for decision making than having nothing, especially in engineering projects.
