If those are your criteria, then transport category aircraft are equally
culpable. They have been brought down by much the same sorts of issues.

Knowing the limitations of one's equipment is a critical component to safe
operation, and the consequences of violating those limitations is not
limited to light aircraft.

The limitations of light aircraft do not make them "generally incapable of
safe en route IFR operations". Although it certainly makes them incapable
of operations in conditions that a more capable aircraft can handle safely.
