You don't know what you're talking about. Single turbine safety is a complex issue, but the bottom line is that in comparing fatalities per 100000 hours from all causes, the record of the factory produced single turbines is virtually indistinguishable from that of turbine twins. If you've got a single turbine, and you want more safety, you're better off putting on a second pilot than a second engine.
