Personally, I'd much rather see Mazda die than stick around long enough to get ruined by private equity, because you know driving dynamics would be first to go.
It's a bunch of cars going slower than you'd prefer, but it's not like I can do anything about it. Just calm down. You'll get there when you get there.
While plenty of cities in the U.S. have announced Vision Zero plans, the feds and even local governments have never really cared about pedestrian safety.
