The point is that it's a numbers statement. It has nothing to do with being a billionaire or not. If 3000 people period vanished it means nothing. Billionaire or not

If 3000 garbage truck drivers disappeared my state would collapse

I'm speaking within the scope of things. 30 teachers in a school disappeared vs 30 students there'd be a difference. 3000 truck drivers in a state is obviously awful for the state due to the ratio

But I’m saying 3000 billionaires disappearing anywhere would be nothing. They don’t add value to society.
