At the large scale of the atmosphere and in the lower layers, the relative weight of gases doesn't matter (otherwise Oxygen and Nitrogen would seperate out and there wouldn't be a mix of other gases in it either).
The makeup down here is largely controller by convection and turbulences, only farther up the relative weight starts to matter.
