In other discussions about this attack it's been pointed out that there are a few Arsonists who have targeted nightclubs with worse results. The number of dead and injured are mostly a result of target density. Basically he chose his target to get the most results and his method to get the most media attention. There is also a rumor that he had been to the club on previous occasions.

It could have been much worse. 96 people died in the Station nightclub fire in 2003 and that was "accidental."
Lets not forget Boston's Cocoanut Grove fire in 1942 that lead to fire safety standards in the US...492 dead. Also an accident.
