Humans have this wonderful thing called painkillers and we hardly die from predation anymore.
Yes death sucks, but it’s nowadays a mild experience

Most humans die from disease/car crash/suicide/murder.
Painkillers help but that doesn’t change how painful these things are to experience it just helps.

Suicide/murder is not even top 10 based on what I’m seeing.
www.cdc.gov/nchs/…/leading-causes-of-death.htm (US deaths 2021)
www.who.int/…/the-top-10-causes-of-death (Global deaths 2019)
Admittedly I only quickly googled them and skimmed for the stats.
I think you’re underestimating the effect of painkillers given when you’re going to die. Otherwise, yeah, fatal car crashes can be painful, or you can die instantly and I have no idea what the ratio is on either.
