Of course, simply because there are more in one category than other does not mean that more articles have to be selected from that larger category. Diversity of main page TFAs is an issue as well. "Warfare", for instance, is not only a large topic but very broad, ranging at present from events in 200BC to the present day, and biographies, across a wide range of countries. The weather articles, in contrast, are mainly on large storms from the last 20 years, and it is harder to include them too frequently without the impression at least of repetition. Much the same point can be made about the television and video games sections. Music, similarly, is skewed towards contemporary Western music, making it difficult to dip into this category too often without either getting repetitious or exhausting the classical alternatives (some of which have pending major date anniversaries anyway).
