Avocado sits somewhere between olive and canola in terms of linoleic acid content (one reference said 13%; another said 7–20%), and has one of the highest smoke points of all cooking oils at 271°C. It's also pretty flavour neutral. It's a fantastic choice for high-heat cooking.

Yeah, I tend to use avocado oil when it's available or refined high-heat olive oil when it's not. The heavy processing of high heat olive oil is concerning but it does mean low linoleic acid.
