The word “average“ can mean many things, for example, mean, median, mode, or even things like “within 1 standard deviation from the mean”.

I was using it strictly as the mean which divides the population exactly in half.

The median is the one that splits a data set in half and picks the middle.

You’re right of course, that was a stupid mistake on my part.
