Yes, but when you make a plan to find an acceptable cumulative future risk, planning to do it once a week for the rest of your life is planning to expose yourself to significantly more risk than doing it twice a year for the rest of your life. You might still die in one of the next 20 instances. But you've added a lot more not-dead time in between them! Saying "I can do one more with minimal added risk" every single time after not dying is true and yet pointless, because it's not a given that "minimal added risk" = "not dying." It's survivorship bias to not think frequency doesn't affect the cumulative odds of your future planning solely because you've already done a lot of trials. |
