This paper used 1,766 fatherson pairs, not average allele lengths. They then separated these results by haplogroup to produce some of their findings. They found that there was a significant relative excess of losses in long alleles and gains in
short alleles (p=0.043). If this is correct, results would tend to be at or close to the mean average allele length per haplogroup.
