If you took a random letter in the alphabet and then sampled from any letter before this letter you would get more samples from the earlier letters of the alphabet. That is because the two step process discards higher letters in the first step. This is not a uniform distribution and is not Bensford's law. It's just a weird two step process that over-samples earlier letters.
