Bitcoin Blocks can hold a Maximum of ~1.7MB [~7200 transactions] so ~12 transactions per second

Wrong, check those blocks :
1. https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/block/566575

Size (bytes)2,377,364
Weight (weight units)3,993,179
Stripped size538,605

2. https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/block/367853

Transaction count12,239

making 6 meaningless statistical error. its just some single use case sat amungst more meaningful data
median does not actually provide anything meaningful. as 6 has no relevance to the other numbers. the number 6 has not been derived from calculations nor from analysing other stats. its just a number that exists

We could use Box plot in this case
