I don't think you really have to say so since this statistic is literally brought up on a monthly basis and has never been doubted or contradicted. It's a basic fact.

Yet again, if his argument supports its conclusion, then so does mine about women and infants.

It would if it was functionally rational but it isn't and I already said that a similar argument of women and dogs is possible but happens to actually be weak because as I mentioned before small chances become statistically insignificant . That is why the argument is one of rationality and invoking absurd counter-arguments doesn't actually work.
Simply put it would be reasonable to say that you should be more wary of women than dogs (Or of than women? I dont know) and men than women but these are much smaller than the original statement thus the original statement is much stronger.
