clearly understand that this is pre-aggregated data (by AVG, MAX, MIN, etc).
For example, say you want to group values by 1 hour interval and `max` function. If you just apply `groupBy(10m, max)` function, your result will be wrong, because you would transform data aggregated by default `AVG` function. You should use `consolidateBy(max)` coupled with `groupBy(10m, max)` in order to get a precise result. For example, say you want to group values by 1 hour interval and `max` function.
