The fact is, we don't know what deaths were or were not
caused by carbon fork failures.

We pretty much do. The fork fails, the rider crashes and
dies. The death
is attributed to fork failure. Yes, there may have been
contributing
factors to the fork failure other than a manufacturing
defect and a fork
that never had experienced any trauma may not have broken.

I'll pretend you're being serious.

You're assuming cause and effect. It could have been rider
crashes, fork fails and rider dies. Or rider dies,
crashes and fork fails.

You wouldn't have hundreds of fork recalls for these cases.

Hundreds of forks per recall does not mean the same thing as
'hundreds of recalls'.
