The aforementioned user from D-F is a very skilled genetic genealogist who I've had the honour of being involved with in the past.
However, as regular viewers of the above site will gauge from some of his threads, he sometimes recants the conclusions of his investigations.
As such, I am unsure how or why he reached this conclusion of high R1b1b2 variance in the Iberian Peninsula. The above user has been active on the site for years, and some of his older threads were created in the era when haplogroup R1b was associated with Mesolithic hunters (i.e. Cro-Magnon people).
Perhaps an out-of-date thread dating back to ~2007-8 was cited, and is being inadvertently merged with the latest interpretation of R1b1b2 diversity, which clearly shows a NE-to-SW cline in Europe, with Anatolia being the most diverse region.
If Rochefaton would kindly show me the thread in question privately, I would truly appreciate it.
I've outlined the possible confusion in R1b1b2 variance above. As far as I am aware, R1b1b2 is most diverse in Anatolia and the notion of increased diversity in Iberia is an old one. Three years is a long time in such a fast-paced and young branch of population genetics.
[Edit]: Just read Rochefaton's new post, disregard the above request please.
