> that's probably survivorship bias.

What? Is every other Berliner dead and can't tell their story?



Survivorship bias can apply to things other than literal survivors.

What I mean is that, since they're in Berlin, they're mostly interacting with other people who live in Berlin. They're not going to hear from people who don't want to live in Berlin, even if those exist.
