True! Of course if we had all the data we could run a fancier statistical test. I suppose my observation is limited to the fact that the English-speaking vs European ranges seem similar rather than e.g. all the Anglosphere countries being distinctly higher than all the European countries.
You could do a funnel type plot where your y-axis is EAs/​capita and your x-axis is 1/​sqrt(population), which is sort of what you’d expect the standard deviation to look like.
Hmm.… That cutoff is really making it hard to assess what’s going on here IMO. Everything is kinda clustered close to the line making me suspect the selection effect is important.

OK this is what we get, using the 25 EAs cutoff for the red line.
