I think the game considers there being more than 5 starters per team and will also include top guys on the DL, the 40 man(?), etc. It’s also been stated that this was the attempt but that it’s a little flatter than real standard deviations, and also I think (pure speculation on my part) they’re just measuring the space from the median to the first standard deviation and then using that same number to indicate further standard deviations instead of being very fiddly with the numbers. I don’t know that anyone on the dev team has like a degree in stats (which, nothing against them; neither do I).
