Weighted average so far, with 312 votes, is 6.78 years. I did the same poll on the machine learning sub and the weighted average there wa 8.19 years with 487 votes, but the post was removed by the mods.

Both measures consider "Never!" as 20 years. I am too mathematically illiterate to come up with a better fix.

You can't fix missing information. You maybe can state things like: "Of the people that think X will happen within Y years, the average is Z years"

Also 10 or more is not equal to 10.
