It makes sense in cases where a single billionaire throws out the average income in an area, not, say, to disregard a country of people who were invaded by the US or it’s proxy for a chart on “global” opinions.
Outlires? like those whacky pesky australians lol, you can account for outlires without resorting to this lazy, cheap cherry picking. Gotta delude yourself to remain optimistic I guess.
lol using the 35 country median of 31% negative because the average is 35% negative
I can understand using median. Strips away outliers.

They’re just using the preferable data. They’d use the average if it was better.
