BOH:-
Sorry, John, but there's simply no such thing as the "HW distribution"
in the Hardy-Weinberg law. If I'm wrong, then please correct me by
pointing to the literature which places the "HW distribution" in the H-W
law.

JE:-
Pedantic nonsense.
Do you deny or confirm that HW “law”
only represents a binomial _distribution_
of the alleles concerned so the HW “law”
is actually just a binomial distribution
of alleles, i.e. HW “law” only represents
a defined _zero_ state re: any _significant_
bias of a binomial distribution of the
alleles concerned?
