Throat cuttings were also extremely uncommon generally: outside of the C5 only one throat cutting murder in the whole of London (pop 5.6 million) in 1888, and that was a domestic incident for which the perpetrator went to the police station to confess.
I agree there's a significant element of doubt about Stride being killed by JtR although, on balance, I believe she was, i.e. largely based on the reasoning of Coroner Baxter.
