The union bound gives . Using on the distinct-label product gives
The lower bound reaches at least one half when . The simple approximation predicts a group size near 23 for . It is the quadratic number of pairs that makes the square root appear.
For a precise limiting statement, let and . Expanding the logarithm of the complement yields
On this scale the remainder tends to zero. Thus a fixed substantial collision probability appears after order draws. For uniform output labels, the corresponding scale is order ; matching one specified birthday instead involves a number of draws of order .
