Measures of central tendency alone are insufficient to completely describe a sample because:

▸

there is rarely an unbiased measure of central tendency in real-world applications.

▸

two very different data sets can have roughly the same (possibly even identical) measures of central tendency.

▸

the value of central tendency for infinite populations is unknowable.

▸

in the amount of time required to calculate a measure of central tendency, the variable under consideration often changes.
