I have this idea that if one of us were talking to a bill and ted from 2200 or so, one of their questions would be something like "so 40,000+ people died in america alone from car crashes, and everyone knew this and just ignored it???"
It's amazing what you get used to.
So really, people in 2200 will talk the same way we do today: "oh, look at all the advances we made that reduced personal transport deaths from 40k people to 1k".
Humans have been assuming risk to gain particular value since we've existed, so only unaware people would say that we are ignoring it (or you wouldn't have the numbers to run your agenda in an unrelated discussion).
