real life examples are a very bad match to the digital world, yours is no exception. you're conflating an attack on a computer system with possible effects of that computer system on the real world. of course that can be set up in arbitrary ways so it is quite pointless to try to prove a point since you might as well prove the exact opposite with the same example (would you not have preferred a DoS if it was flight 11 or 175?).
