When plotting ratio data (such as % growth) on scatter chart, the average line incorrectly averages the ratio data as the arithmetic mean of the ratios displayed when it should be using the measure value result for the ratio data. Please fix this so we can use an average line which matches the average in a KPI visual. Seeing 2 different averages will confuse the user.

5 years after creating this idea, it is here! Ability to use a measure to control 'constant' lines.
