There is an unfortunately common thing in coverage of space events of hyping up how rare they are, especially annoying for really mundane things like blue wolf super gruyere moon. Total solar eclipses are actually geographically rare though, only happening on a tiny percent of earth's surface per year, but I enjoy the sort of inversion of normal of being able to say in 2026-27, "total solar eclipses are rare in Spain, they only happen once a year."
