According to @fabrice:  
_Yes, the distribution of seats on committee is, on average, the same as the distribution of online stake._

So the validators are on average the same. Furthermore, 25-16 of them (assuming the above calculations are correct) have the super minority in the commitee i.e. they can block the consensus of 2/3 of the BFT algorithm of algorand.  
If not, can you explain why?
