Hm --- that <indexterm> entry is attached to the percentile_cont()
function, which can be used to implement median, but I agree that
a person who already knew that would probably not be following the
index pointer.

It might be more useful to point to 4.2.7. Aggregate Expressions
which contains a concrete example of how to implement median
with percentile_disc().

Another idea is to just make the index entry say
"See percentile_cont() and percentile_disc()".
