Why median? A median is the exact middle value in a set of data, meaning half the values in the set are below it, and the other half above it. It is like an average, but less skewed by outliers on either end.

User platforms

Platform ownership and engagement values are heavily skewed by the nature of your Lens, for example including only Steam games will inherently bias the values in favor of Steam ownership and engagement compared to the overall average.

Lens personalities

Personalities are fun ways a user sticks out from the average. Certain statistics are tracked across all PlayTracker users, and when a user is either in the top 33% or bottom 33% of a given statistic, this forms the basis for a personality. If the value is within the middle 33% (aka average) then this statistic is skipped and a personality is not assigned.
