When you have millions of players, .03% is 300 people per million. Consider the fact that the .03% of people in this figure are those who report this bug to Riot.

Perhaps not included in the .03% are people who lost their install and:

are not tech savvy enough to even file a report or recover their computer
gave up or quit trying
haven't yet recovered their PC to file a report the usual way
stuck to reporting issues and seeking help elsewhere, such as on Reddit, perhaps even PC subreddits
quit when they realized how insane the Vanguard saga is

Riot is has a colorful history and a future of misuing and abusing statistics across the board. It's practically their modus operandi.
