RE: The Paradox of Non-Transitive Dice and Our Imperfect Intuitions

That's a great observation! It's absolutely fair to say that those dice have been gerrymandered in a way that one of the dies would have victories by larger margins but of fewer number while the other would have a larger number of victories my a smaller margin. And indeed, those dice examples as well as others like it have been intentionally "gerrymandered" so they can produce this type of results just as political districts where the population is evenly split, but one side ends up with a landslide victory due this extremely crooked political practice indeed!
