Is anybody willing to create a poll listing off the number off fishes that you ESTIMATE that you have bought and died while in your care? If I were to create this poll, I wouldn't even give the option of 0-10 because that is not realistic. And whatever choices anybody made, I would multiply by 1.5 to get the more accurate true numbers.
Put it bluntly, we all contribute to the practice of sacrificing animals for entertainment. So regardless you give the fish a 50 or 100 or 200 gallon tanks in comparision to their natural habitat, we are only trying to reassure ourselves that we are doing the right thing.

Only one for me since I started a year and half ago and that was a green mandarin that was killed by a yellow tang

I sold the yellow tang. Shame because that green mandarin was with me since the begining and was fat and healthy eating white worms, bloodworms and fish roe. I have the female remaining but never again a yellow tang for me.

Now the most important thing in my tank is no aggression and any aggressive fish is sold.

The worse thing to do to fish is not doing quarantine and letting them live with parasites.
