Change Y-axis Series' aggregation function from Sum to Average in Google Sheets' Bar Charts

I need to do something pretty basic - change the (Y-axis) "Series"' aggregation function from Sum to Average in a Google Sheets bar chart.



I see how to do so in the official documentation and in the UI's chart editor under Customize then Series then Aggregate Type.



However, every time I try to do so there seems to be a glitch. An error message pops up saying




Unable to upload file




Not that there was any file upload involved. This problem has persisted across browser types and machines for 2 days.



I'm not sure what the best way to do a reproducible example here is other than to link to one in Sheets (?). Please note - I am aware of a workaround, which is basically to precalculate the means or values of interest. For now, that's what I'm doing. However, I'd still like to troubleshoot this or determine if it's a genuine bug...
