The trouble is it's really difficult to objectively measure this.  My take
is that it's much more *likely* to have a really excellent top 4 at any
given time than to have a really poor 5+.  My guess is an instance of a
particularly weak field (in "absolute terms", whatever that is) would only
occur in an exceptionally unusual period, such as during war or during the
early days of the sport when it lacked participation and standardization.
