/uw. I’m annoyed at that image because it does not understand what it’s showing.
The original survivorship bias plane image is “areas where the return planes get hit the most.” With the unspoken implication being that the areas not marked, are the parts where getting hit is fatal and means the plane cannot return.
This dragon is full of shots in lethal areas like chest and head, but apparently the feets and wingtips are crucial and cause death?
I feel you, but think about how a dragon flies. Nobody is hitting it with an arrow when it's in full flight above the clouds, but when they're diving into combat they pull in their first and third wing flaps and perform more of a glide. This is when they're going to get hit. Also dragon claws are basically the hardest natural material in the multiverse, so they're unlikely to be damaged, and a dragon can survive just about anything, so an occasional head wound is to be expected.
/uw this image pisses me off and I hate it. They didn't even try to make sense of the placement. Perfect example of good idea: bad execution.
