Now I am fairly certain I probably use more than that even, but with the complexity of biological systems it might be as well saying that being shot with 10 bullets is somehow better than with 1000 bullets.

I just point that out, because I am acutely aware how good people are at convincing themselves with statistics of anything, really.

lol. You're comparing toothpaste to getting shot 10 times?

Yes that is better than getting shot 1000 times, not better than getting shot only once, in case you are wondering.

Complexity != Fragile

You are actually being hit a lot more by cosmic rays that are not deflected by our atmosphere. We survive this fine. This is probably a more acurate simile than the bullet one, based on the amounts involved.
