More Zipf's law

Courtesy of Money Illusion, we get this data on skyscrapers across the globe. The distribution obeys Zipf's Law. Yes, I have thoughts. This tells me that we code for production just like we code for language. The ratios of word length, and the ratios of skyscraper height are both designed as if they are part of a production channel that meet a specific inventory variance, constant across each stage of production channel.
