Wrong again. In the link you provided:

It does mean that the average wealth is more relevant than median wealth.
I guess you can't read.
More reliable is not even close to the same as more relevant. If mean was more relevant, he'd have used the mean.
Again, he went on to say median was more difficult to determine, not that it's less relevant.
Are you not able to understand the difference? Even drunk liberals can.

Your own link disagrees with you.
Reliable data is infinitely more important, more relevant, than unreliable data. You keep posting unreliable data and your link says that the data is unreliable.

Distance to the moon: 238,900 miles

There's some reliable data... More reliable than the median wage here in 'Murica!
I guess that makes it more relevant data to the topic at hand also!

What, you're saying highly reliable data about the distance to the moon isn't relevant to a country's wealth?

Come to think of it, you may be onto something...

First you said highly reliable data is more relevant than less reliable data.
Then you said it wasn't. Please give us your final answer.

The difference between mean and median is not a 'semantic' difference.
I'm going to break this down for you. Your source said that the data which determines the mean wage is more reliable than the data which determines the median wage. You said that makes it more relevant, because the results of the research which produced the data were more reliable. So, apparently you think data is more relevant to the discussion simply because the research is more reliable (it is harder t gather information on the median wage). Therefore, it follows that all data which is more reliable must be more relevant to the discussion. The distance to the moon can be more reliably measured than the median wage, therefore it must be more relevant to the discussion.

Actually I was talking about the word "reliable". Socialist schools really fucked you up huh
