One is an accident, one is a true failure of parenting. See the difference?
Accidents happen all the time in parenting. The vast majority of the time they don't end in potentially mortL situations. But yes. I do see the difference. It's about 10 years and the elder in the situation involuntarily have a better grasp on the consequences of their volition.
How long do you think it took that toddler to get in there? 1 second? 30 seconds? Would other parents have gotten in there to protect their child?
