I am dumber for having seen this study. I'm not even an expert in statistics to realize that the claims being made are deeply flawed.

Funny anecdote related to that. Even big ordnance does not guarantee death.
Myself and my compadres have dropped 500lb laser guided bombs (GBU-12s) on shitheads driving cars in the sandbox. I’ve watched near misses (2 meters behind the car trunk) that almost destroyed the car, yet allowed the driver to crawl out alive a minute later. Dazed and damaged, but not dead. The reason was discovered to be a combination of the explosive frag envelope of an impact fused bomb, the shielding mass of the car body, and a dollop of luck.
Lesson learned for us, if you are going to err when hitting a mover, miss in front. The driver and passengers are less protected from the frag, blast, and flying glass. Or drop a better weapon. We have since developed better targeting pods, bombs and other weapons that are more effective at hitting movers dead center, and guaranteeing a kill.
As with pistols and rifles, shot placement IS everything.
