Because:\r\n\r\n- there's already a large number of summary statistics for numeric variables (close to too many, IMO)\r\n- median CI's are harder to get right in all circumstances, and doing a bootstrap isn't exactly in the `skimr` philosophy (a quick \"read\" of your data). There's a discussion of approaches here: https://www.afit.edu/stat/statcoe_files/CI_for_Population_Median.pdf\r\n\r\n`skimr` is fully customizable, and you're free to add your own statistics. I believe that V2 does a good job of handling this, and I plan to work on working more on the v2 release next week (I've been busy with other stuff recently).\r\n\r\nHere's how you would add your own stat in v2:\r\nhttps://github.com/ropensci/skimr/blob/v2/R/skim_with.R\r\n"}}
