Sure, I'm really fine with that.

That's a good property:-)

What else? People have ten fingers and like powers of 10, and are used to
percents?

I think that for the exponential distribution it helps, especially for
high threshold, to have the lowest/highest percent density. For low
thresholds, the decile is also definitely useful. So I'm fine with both
outputs as you have put them.
I have just updated the wording so that it may be clearer:
decile percents: 69.9% 21.0% 6.3% 1.9% 0.6% 0.2% 0.1% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% probability of fist/last percent of the range:
11.3%0.0%
> Attached patch is fixed version, please confirm it.
Attached a v15 which just fixes a typo and the above wording update. I'm
validating it for committers.

I'm not a soccer kind of person, so it does not influence my
availibility.:-)
Suggested commit message:
Add drawing random integers with a Gaussian or truncated exponentional
distributions to pgbench.
Test variants with these distributions are also provided and triggered
with options "--gaussian=..." and "--exponential=...".
Have a nice day/night,
