which suggests to me that they are actually defining a "space" as the average width of a letter

But which letter? A 'W' in 12pt TNR is 11.34pt wide, whilst a space is only 3pt wide. The widest characters are 12pt wide. The most common width, by far, is 6pt - but even that only accounts for 1 in 4 characters.
