This sort of implies the street criminals become cyber criminals, which seems to not be a matching skill set. Call me skeptical of the study I admittedly haven't read.

Does it? I never considered that. It seems obvious to me that they aren't the same actual people.

We have more EV cars on the road displacing ICE vehicles, but that doesn't imply that the old cars "transformed" into electric ones.

You literally wrote "If crime remains a constant then having shitty software security is a safety valve" - so there is some implication otherwise how would that work? Why would crime become constant? If these are two different groups of people, why don't we have increase in both? This explanation seems too simplistic to me.
