If all GA midair collisions were eliminated, 27 people would still be alive,

If it were possible, sure, but many _more_ lives could be saved by
putting the effort elsewhere. It's a matter of allocation of
resources.

The restrictions on flying that an effort to completely eliminate
midairs would mean that pretty much everybody stays on the ground.
