That's like saying that to ban apples, we need to show that someone
somewhere died from eating too many apples.
That it happens once, a few times, or several times is of no
significance. Instead, we need to look at a proportion out of all
countries.
How many countries during the same time frame have had their governments
replaced by less controlling regimes?
How many countries during the same time frame haven't even had a change
of government?
