Is "some cases" closer to 1% or 50+%? That paper is behind a paywall.
How does it do on normal and other common distributions?

It seems obvious that for symmetrical distributions, like the normal, winsorizing does not change the mean.

Was looking for an answer for other common distributions, or a one-line summary of the paper.

but it can converge faster to the mean with the sample size...
