I'm not sure statement this is correct. The mean of a float32 array can certainly be computed as a float32. Currently this is not necessarily what happens, not even approximately. That feels a lot like a bug, even if we can readily understand how the algorithm currently used produces it. To say whether it is a bug or not, don't we have to ask about the intent of `mean`? If the intent is to sum and divide, then it is not a bug. If the intent is to produce the mean, then it is a bug.
