Idk if this has been debunked or not, but I'm pretty sure that the statistics that Dark Sun told Sun (about how many Moons kill their Suns and what not) were either lies to further his "Sun liberation" vendetta. Or incorrect statistics that he believes are real.
It's probably the former, considering he's even smarter than Eclipse, and I don't think he'd accidentally get a different statistic than the truth. Although, it's possible he did mess something up.
The reason I don't believe the statistics is one: Ruin already destroyed 5,000 dimensions that included the creator (aka the guy that causes dimensions like the SAMS, EAPS, Ruin's, ect to exist in the way it does.)
The dimensions left over that include the creator (such as eaps, the swap dimension, tsams, and some others) are only alive because the creator is already dead, had a heart attack, or are in between life and death.
And thousands of other dimensions exist as well. Considering they don't have the creator, I would assume they function differently than the ones we know from the SAMS's perspective. And since it's a multiverse, I would also assume that said multiverse includes other fan made content as well.
If that's true, Moons aren't always the abuser/bad guy in the situation.
A LOT of fanfics, especially as of recent, have been utilizing the "Sunhinged" trope for Sun. Making him incredibly passive aggressive, and sometimes possessive/yandere/abusive towards Moon (so the opposite of what happens in Creator universes it seems).
So if Dark Sun caused a 35% discrepancy in the multiverse, just how many of those dimensions were unnecessarily roped in? How many of those universes were triggered into those "Sunhinged" Suns killing Moon unnecessarily???
Because not many dimensions like SAMS, EAPS, DS's old dimension, and Ruin's dimension remain. That 35% might be dragging in universes that don't have the same dynamic as those Suns and Moons do.
Just how much damage is Dark Sun causing? Especially if that discrepancy increases.
Edit: ALSO, Atlas implied those statistics could be a lie at the end of that episode. So yeah, I truly do believe that what Dark Sun said was incorrect or a downright lie.
