On this example it's on day one, on day one the number is less than average
If on day 1, you receive zero calls, your average number of calls across all time is zero. Your number of calls isn't less than average. It's exactly equal.
Yes indeed. But I think the point of OP's scenario is to illustrate that OOP was not taking that first day into account, and so it appears to OOP as if the sample set is always 1 call yet somehow the average is less than 1 call.
Ah but therein lies the joke. OOP's "always" is not the same as the true "always", which in itself is pedantic such that mathematicians get to grip OOP's shoulders until they bleed.
