It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

7% of the time is a tendency
"Tends to" implies that it's more likely to happen than not.
Nope, it means something has a tendency to happen.

I love how venomously pendantic this exchange is.

Likely: having a high probability of occurring or being true : very probable
So it's subjective.
7% chance to have your face ripped open, do you consider it to be likely enough to take it into consideration when buying a helmet? If you had a 7% chance to crash every time you ride would you continue riding?
Now you're just being stupid on purpose.
