Comment on Why do we use average instead of mode?

1, 2.999, 3, 4, 5, 45, 98, 99.999, 100 => ?
It will only work on datasets where you have few very distincts values but also lots of values.
I guess we don’t like it eather because shitty headlines would have a field day if people even knew “mode” might be about in statistics (or am I thinking too french?). Thank god for that naming BTW.
