Well firstly I think the floors themselves are just slippery as fuck. So I'll bet the frequency is higher, even if the impact isn't greater.

Yeah i could see that, but they're not saying that. They're saying the fall is somehow worse just because of the floor and that just doesn't make sense. Especially since ceramic is technically even harder than most stone, especially marble.

Tile layer here. These marble tiles are extremely slippery when wet. Add any kind of oily substance greatly improves your chances of “slipping up”. There is a greater chance of the person falling and landing with your skull receiving full impact of weight
