Had it been a more powerful laser you may not have been so lucky.
Had you got a longer exposure you may not have been so lucky.
Had it happened to the PF you may not have been so lucky.
Had you missed something during your temporary blindness you may not have been so lucky.
Had you done something incorrectly during your temporary blindness you may not have been so lucky.
Had your temporary blindness lasted longer you may not have been so lucky.
Etc..
How do you know that a single pilot would have achieved the same outcome whilst being blind?
