Since we can't observe the counterfactual, meaning "had climate change not happened", the amount of deaths directly linked to the current severity of the climate change effects cannot be established for sure.
We can extrapolate, but we can't compare against a reality that did not happen.
Sure, just like literally everything comparing reality to the counter-factual this involves estimates. Not a particularly profound or useful observation.
You don't understand how science works. It's been proven with full certainty that climate change is fully caused by humans. Any nay saying to that is just pretending otherwise; there's far and away enough evidence to prove it
