I've met many gentle and well-trained Rotties, Bull Terriers, German Shepherds and even an (illegal) Pit Bull. And I've met so many fluffy rat-dogs owned by trophy wives that are used to getting away with biting anything. Differences in prey drive and excitability between breeds plays a very small role. Its always the owners.

Yeah, I trust the figures I've seen about as much as I trust COVID fatalities. Police reports of the dog's breed are subjective. Media even more so. Even poodles have been written up as being pitbulls, here. But if you have a link to a credible study, I'd like to read it.
