I don't think this is a valid objection. Just about every print or video or TV ad I've ever seen (for any product or service) uses good-looking outliers to represent the typical user.
And in many cases, unlike this case, the models in the ads are ... actors. Not actual users (of cigarettes, or McDonald's, or Windows 8) at all.
