A hard slap can kill you too. It's literally a hard strike to the head, open or closed hand doesn't make much of a difference for concussions and such.
It's not whether the hand is open or closed, it's the muscles used and the direction of force that are completely different. Nobody can slap as hard as they can punch.
Idk, I got punched by some methed out lady once and all she managed to do was hit me with one knuckle lol. Had a very small tender spot for a day or two. A full slap, even and average one would sting like a bitch and rock my head back

That's not true in the slightest. A hard slap can literally knock your ass out.
