You can eat any wild mushroom you find in the woods.

One could simply say that most drivers are above average. That’s probably true, at least year-by-year, for the same reason that most people have an above-average number of legs.
well, if you think about it “correctly” it’s just a funny way of saying that most dogs have the expected number of legs.
If you don’t think about it “correctly” it leads you to wondering where all these dogs with fewer than the expected number of legs are and what happened to them that they don’t have the expected number of legs, or what’s wrong with this person making this statement and will smiling and nodding while backing away slowly work etc.

The biggest number you can think of is closer to zero than to infinity.
On the contrary:
The mean human has 1 testicle and 1 ovary.
All humans are mean.
Therefore, all humans have 1 testicle and 1 ovary.
All humans are mean.
Life has no meaning.
Therefore, humans are not alive.
