I think maybe what we're failing to take into consideration is the apparently large frequency of iron that's supposed to show up in the new mountain biomes. We're just unable to test that since the new mountain biomes aren't in Java edition yet. If the frequency there actually evens out the low frequency in the ground, it would actually be a good way to fix progression to make leather a must early game since the powdered snow is combatted by leather armor. We may just have to wait and see.
Though, I do agree that the image seems to not be representative of iron ore generation. I agree that when I mine where iron should be most abundant, I find more copper and coal even though the image shows that iron should be more abundant than those resources.
