Oct 16, 2013 at 4:05 comment added Peter McNamara OK I shouldn't mention the word dense, but instead just point out that most of the time the number of F_q points in the big cell is more than half the number of F_q points in the group.
Oct 16, 2013 at 3:18 comment added Marguax This "density" argument is confusing, since you set things up with finite groups of F_q-points, so one cannot really make contact with Zariski-density that way. I'm a bit skeptical that the proposed argument in the first paragraph really leads to a proof. But it doesn't matter since the 2nd paragraph gives a nice proof.
