It's not interesting because it's not representative. Pair this with some stat that shows it happens the same way most of the time and then it's interesting.
"People lived" during the same event. In fact even more people lived. Was that interesting?
That's the problem with those style of arguments. As logical as you want them to be, it doesn't remove the trauma burned into the psyche of the people who lived that day.
If you deny someone's humanity in your argument, you've lost.
