The thing is, when evaluating the merits of the machine, is to eliminate the pilots from the equation.

IOW how many crashes caused by the design/manufacture and not the pilot or maintenance?

There is a suggestion that some RH blades have failed catastrophically in flight when operated in accordance with best practice (no low g, no high speed into turbulence etc). If there are a number of those then we have a problem.
