Description
Example:
import scanpy.api as sc
adata = sc.datasets.blobs()
sc.pp.neighbors(adata)
sc.tl.louvain(adata)
sc.tl.paga(adata)
adata.uns['iroot'] = 0
sc.tl.dpt(adata)
sc.pl.paga_path(adata, nodes=['1', '2'], keys=['1', '2'], n_avg=1, as_heatmap=False)
sc.pl.paga_path(adata, nodes=['1', '2'], keys=['1', '2'], n_avg=2, as_heatmap=False)
Output:


I would expect that the legend in both plots stays the same.

Research direction
Start by running the provided example and inspect the implementation behind sc.pl.paga_path, comparing the n_avg=1 and n_avg=2 plots. Trace how the legend is built for each call and verify that the legend remains consistent between both outputs when the fix is complete.
