There's an average for all imported products and an average for the changing subset of imported products subjected to tariffs.

And I told you that it doesn't matter for comparison purposes as long as it is consistently applied. Try thinking, for once.

It certainly does. If one percent of imported products have a tariff of one hundred percent, then the average across all imported products is one percent. One is less than one hundred. Go find your calculator.
