A formalization of the generalized Pareto principle derives that exponential and normal distributions with 100 to 100,000 samples produce p values near 0.2, close to the 80/20 rule and below prior saturation conjectures.

Formalization of the generalized Pareto principle and structural typicality of the 20/80-rule
A formalization of the generalized Pareto principle derives that exponential and normal distributions with 100 to 100,000 samples produce p values near 0.2, close to the 80/20 rule and below prior saturation conjectures.
