Is there a "standard" salt to pepper ratio?

Risking hubris, I am a great cook.
But I have no real training. Just experience since I moved away from home, and a few friends along the way that taught me stuff.

I know what they mean when they say “season to taste”

But I wonder…

Is there a recognized standard ratio of salt to pepper, that would be sort of universally regarded as a starting point for most dishes.
