You're using a sample size of 1.

Hell, I'm just as correct to say that truly intelligent life is super common becasue of all of the planets with life that we know of, 100% of them have truly intelligent life.
We may only have a sample size of 1 in terms of planets with life that we can study, but we have millions of species on earth that we can study and none of them come even remotely close to our level of intelligence.

I'm not disagreeing with you, or even saying that I think we are the smartest civilization out there, I'm just adding more to the discussion.
