I don't think that is actually true

In the last 16 at the US Open:
Men's #1 seed, #2, #4, #6
#11, #12, #13, #22 & #24
WC + 3Qs

Women's #2 seed, #4, #5, #6
#7, #8, #9, #11
#12, #15, #14, #16
#17
Q

Fewer Men's seeds progressed to Rd 4
More Men's Qualifiers got to Rd 4
More Men's Wildcards got to Rd 4
