The combination of the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem, as I have tried to explain to you, can be used to calculate the means of distributions. Those means do not have to be Normal for the calculation to be valid.

In this scenario we have about 16 samples, drawn from a binomial distribution.
If you want to discuss an individual fight, you need to do a binomial distribution for the JBB DPS, the Pet DPS, the Mob DPS, etc.

You don't get to simply set the weapon proc to 16 samples, while leaving all the other samples at infinity.

You are changing the sample size for one variable to try and lower it's DPS in a silly attempt to win.
