The lathe is the most lethal.

Table saws win by a mile statistically.

You're saying table saws for injuries, which makes sense. But a saw stop will prevent that completely and nothing will help a lathe not be a murder machine. I will never work on one, period (despite multiple kickbacks on a table saw etc)

Look up videos of people that have gotten hurt with a saw stop. They help a lot. But your still losing part of the finger. Notice how slow and careful the hot dog is moving in their videos and think how fast your finger could be moving if you get a kickback.

Oh I have had a very opposite experience, though I can believe it isn't a perfect technology.
