I wanted to downvote, but then I read it. While I don’t accept the premise entirely, I think the points are very well made and thought out well (even if taken to the extreme).

Alright im out

One in Twenty.

The 95th percentile means you’re in the top twentieth.

In a group of 40, one will be better than you. In a group of 100, four will be better than you. In a group of 1,000, which is still a small number of people, 49 will be better than you.

The article doesn’t once mention what 95p actually means, as a number. When you think about the actual number, it’s clear that it’s not a big deal.
