I always tried to follow the original set (did we ever agree not to?). I might
have included some other number by accident (not remembering 4 is not a
Fibonacci number).

Anyway, I think what we did is allowing the averages to have any value, not the
estimates (so if there's 3 and 5, we can average to 4).

With regards
