You don't see the difference between "x must be y always everywhere even in tiny groups" and "start skeptical if x isn't y in big groups"?

I don't know how much simpler I can make this. Those statements are not the same.

It might need equalizing.

It depends on why the balance is the way it is.

It's good to check sometimes.
