He clearly does elsewhere, so I would suggest reading this more charitably with the assumption that you’re talking about the same idea from different perspectives. If I’m the passenger, I don’t even know about something which is caught by a checklist or redundant hardware before it progresses. If I’m the pilot or mechanic, the reverse is true. In both cases, what matters is the spirit of the point: saying something is too infrequent to prevent is defeatist.
