it just occurred to me that the reason people always get confused about what averages mean is because we're never told or taught that they're fake.

averages are hypotheticals, they don't exist.
averages are a horizontal line drawn on a slope, and it only works for estimates if the slope wasn't very steep in the first place.

when people say "average person" they are thinking of the median (the one in the middle) or mode (the most commonly seen) person while using a point of data for a person that doesn't exist.

you cannot find an average person, it's impossible because they are a made-up person.

more people need to realize this and use median and mode measurements more often, especially people writing articles and news stories.
