You argument is not a worthwhile one.

No matter the example, you could always narrow it down to "luck".

"Lucky you didn't get run over by a car"

"Lucky you didn't get cancer and die"

"Lucky WW3 didn't start and destroy your country"

What's the point?

The percentage of people that had access to a Commodore 64 was relatively small, so a person had a high chance of not having access. That means it was lucky to have had access.

The percentage of people that are killed in a car accident is relatively small, so a person who is not killed in a car accident doesn't need to be particularly lucky to avoid being killed in a car accident.

Yes, luck is a factor in everything, but the role that luck plays in everything is not the same.
