This article deliberately confuses normal distribution, which applies to such things as height or IQ, and power law distribution, which applies to wealth, social connections, city sizes etc. I think nobody is surprised about the fact that the largest cities are more than million times larger than the smallest settlements. Or that that top 1% of the largest cities includes the sizable proportion of human population.
