As usual, the issues of the Hispanic chess figures are swept under the board.

Large websites like chess.cum don't even have a Hispanic option.

As you can see, White has gotten more mean over time. And people wonder why chess is declining!

It's sad but true

That's why most modern tournaments use Black and Hispanic pieces now

Definitely a more balanced approach but feels like a waste to discard an entire color like that.

also, the mean rises sharply while the median hasn't even reached pre 2008 levels again.

meaning a sharply increasing distance between high and low wages if my statistics chops aren't completely off.
