Many things in life are traumatic. Me leaving the Catholic church was traumatic for my parents. My years-long girlfriend cheating on me was traumatic for me.

Does trauma for the 1% outweigh the benefits of the 99%?

Did I say that it does? The post above mine asked if it mattered. It matters, but it is one factor among many that goes into family planning or sexual relationships.
With medications, 1% chance of a traumatic side effect is indeed considered very serious.
