The average of 0° and 359° is obviously 359.5°.

it's a radial scale.

By that logic, the average of red and cyan is both purple and lime. Still useless.

Not if there is a clear trend. If most movie posters are blue, three average will be blue.

But i agree, it is useless if there is no clear trend.
