Have you ever been involved in air traffic (or street traffic for that matter)? In the air you may see the jet from a too bad an angle to correctly assess its speed and direction. First of all, the surface area from below is much, much larger percentage than when its approaching head on. Secondly, unless it has two engines quite far apart, it is almost impossible to judge its speed head on as you have no perspective to give you a clue. That is why an approaching carâ(TM)s speed is easier to assess than a motorbikeâ(TM)s - and in case of airplanes we are talking about a much larger speed variation possible. And last but not least, on the ground you are stationary relative to an aircraft, not so much with a jetpack.

Yes, was fortunate enough to just slide in touring gear (Rukka textile) on a wet autobahn. Even the bike was not totalled - i picked it up and drove it couple of more hours until we found a hotel. Didnt hurt like hell - my injuries were limited to a 2mm bruise on one knuckle. All im saying is that crashes arenâ(TM)t equal and its hard to predict what will happen.

One can conclude that this is 98% claim is bullshit purely from the fact that Apple itself left the higher end of its lineup on Intel. So M1 really does not make sense in that segment. At the same time in PC world, comparable gaming laptop sales account to well over 2%. Add to this high end BIM workstations, etc.
