Still - a very odd choice of graph. Don’t really account for the market share - and it looks like the two things being compared are stacked?
Not saying the conclusion is wrong. But an odd choice.

MODERATORS
Graph is shitty useless clickbait without proportionality — e.g. If Airbus planes only flew 1/6th the distance as Boeing, they'd be more dangerous than Boeing.
This however is implying that the distance traveled is the metric to measure against, which might skew data. It plays a role, but in aviation, other factors play important rules as well, like starts, landings, touch-and-gos, bad weather conditions flying hours, (as opposed good weather flying hours which relates to distance traveled) and so on. For military aircraft, even more metrics might exist, like contour flying hours, desert flying hours and whatnot.
If (accidents / distance traveled) was the only important metric, the safest means of transport would possibly be space travel.
