I mean; if you devide the number of vertices by the area per aparc-parcellation, some parcellations have relatively more vertices per mm^2 as others. If you now would compute the average thickness in for example the lobe-parcellation, the thicknesses of some areas (the parcellations with relatively more vertices per mm^2) get a higher weight in the overal average. Is that true?
