Not sure I agree with you on that. I had the pleasant near death experience by flying with a now defunct Mexican airline called Aerolineas Internacionales. Perfect safety record. On paper. Am still amazed that this airline did not kill any pax.
Talk to contractors that fly for a large airline out of the Korean Peninsula. Most of them will admit (after a few hops-related beverages) that they can't explain the good safety record. It's all relative.
