Yes, it is easy to slight figures to say what you want.
Truth is, the 737 has done 10x as many flights as the A320, so they have similar flight records, but the A320 has a much better survivability rate.
But as you say, A320 is much newer tech. I just can't stand media that sensationalizes 1 failure to fulfil an anti French agenda and say that the plane is UNSAFE. Especially when the inverse is the truth.
Most of the failures have been from maintenance faults, not Airbus design faults.
