I think parent correctly identified it as hyperbole, a figure of speech, not a syllogism.

On one hand I agree with your assessment. On the other you argue with a personal anecdote -- not much better, is it?

Sorry, but that - "So why is Tesla being investigated for being involved in 0.25% of these crashes when they made up 3% of car sales in 2020?" - pointing at others/numbers to detract from your own mistakes clearly is whatabou
