I'll tell you in a few hours.
You guys are acting like you've never had beef tartar!
So the difference is that in beef tartare the beef is fresh and only the surface has had the opportunity to be exposed to bacteria.
Because store bought mince has been mixed together the surface bacteria has mixed with the rest of the meat increasing risk.
If you’ve made this fresh though, yeah you’re right, the risk is manageable.
I don't know about the hygiene and food safety standards in your country are, but in Germany it's safe to buy minced meat at the butcher and eat it raw.
