The wiki link is kinda interesting. The first column is irrelevant, the last column exempts food and energy and still raises the question (based on the first column) of what the actual trade would be if there were no tariffs.
Certainly for the first column it may be true that if the tariffs are so high on some products that there are going to be no imports and the "weighted actual" will be close to 0.
I'm not going to the last column since it ignores two important categories.
