Five seconds or less is a huge smallest bucket for kiss duration! At the five-second threshold you're already entering make-out territory.

Plus, people whose kisses average one second are having a very different experience than those who average around four seconds.

Seems like a poorly-designed statistic to me. I wonder if they felt they needed such coarse granularity because the data is collected by survey and people struggle to bucket themselves well.
