Although the above might lead one to hastily conclude that the table
saw is statistically more dangerous than the radial arm saw, there is
no data to show the number of tablesaws existing versus the number of
radial arm saws.

Perhaps someone has access to industry sales statistics that would let
us weigh the probabilities in a more useful fashion.

I don't have ready access to statistics, but one thing to consider:
There are lots of $89 bench top tablesaws out there. There is no
equivalent RAS.
