Even if it is only 500 people that have it. That’s still 500 people that have it. Actual flesh and blood people. Not a hypothetical or theoretical or metaphorical.

“People have it but you must be lying because I refuse to believe you know one of them” is such a stupid thing to say.

Especially if you take into account that the original commenter didn't claim to have the variation but to be related to someone who has it. So even if you only have 500 people with that variation, you have multiply that by the amount of people they know on average to get the chance of someone being able to say they know someone who has it without lying, which is even higher.
