>can save 1+ life, it's better than what we have now so we should keep it and accept

So I take it you would be fine with the nightmare version of Apple's phone scanner, continuously scanning your devices for thoughtcrime? After all, "If it saves just one child..."

Any time I hear emotional appeals that ignore the cost side of the equation, I look for a financial motive.

Let's rephrase. If the important upsides and downsides are all represented in the number of traffic fatalities, and that number goes down, then that's good.

The problem with the Apple system is significant downsides that are completely separate from CSAM.
