The most well behaved dog I've ever had but we also took really good care of her knowing the breed.

To contrast our neighbour had to put down her lab cross recently due to biting a neighborhood kid. It was lawsuit or dog. The owners didn't take care of her and the dog had to pay the price. Really upsetting to me.

It's all about the owner not the breed.
Ok but
1. Do we agree that you are never going to be able to figure out how to ensure that all owners are responsible?
2. How hurt was the kid? Horrible to be sure but was it a serious injury?

If not then it isn't the type of thing we are trying to eliminate here.
