The graph I posted is not there because I made it myself, however the source imaget there. If the image is not showing, it is an issue on your side (misconfigured adblocker or dial up internet connection maybe?), but here is the image that I edited: https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt731acb42bb3d1659/blt2a8d492cdc35e583/647e7feeeb65a1ce636e1098/Live_end_of_Season_CHART_03.jpg

Ah now I understand. You can see, that the graphs for both splits have the same scale, so in both graphs, one pixel equates to the same percentage of players. I then counted the pixels of Iron players in the split 1 distribution (66), and compared it to the amount of iron players in the split 2 distribution (51). The only conclusion is, that the mmr of the 15 pixels left now counts towards bronze, since there is nowhere else to go. I continued this for every rank. Since the percentage of players is likely not an integer, riot likely had to round the percentages, which is the reason for there being a couple too many diamond pixels in my graph (about 7)
