Fair play, we understand each other perfectly then
"You don't buy extended warranties on kitchen knives...."
Exactly. Using my absurd example, if computers were statistically as reliable as kitchen knives, you wouldn't bother with an extended warranty. Therefore statistics have some meaning, at least for some people.
My brother in law is an accountant and I know damn well he thinks very hard about the failure probability before deciding whether, or not, to buy an extended warranty. My sister on the other hand would buy an extended warranty on a pencil if they offered it. It drives him crazy.
Therefore it's your
opinion to state that statistics have no meaning. For some people (me, my brother in law at least) they do have a meaning and affect the buying decision. You're welcome to tell me your opinion is more valid than mine, but it's an opinion, not a fact.
"Peace of mind, inconveniences and the ability/willingness to pay for a repair are
more meaningful factors than some unrelated, biased statistics on some website."
I'd still say that's your opinion:- it's your opinion that the statistics are biased (unless you have clear evidence of this, I'd be interested to see it not being an expert in the field). It's your opinion about what's more and less meaningful. It will depend on the person. Again I am the counter-example of your opinion. I (rightly or wrongly) considered the statistics on the website a meaningful factor in my decision not to purchase Applecare. Again you can tell me your opinion is superior to mine, and you might well be right, but it's an opinion not a fact.
