However, in a hypothetical Yang vs Trump matchup, Yang would perform way better than you think he would.

His appeal to disaffected voters in swing states comes from the fact that his Freedom Dividend would have helped ease the pain of those who lost their jobs to automation in recent years.
Who says Yang wouldn't have brought the party together? Centrist democrats would look at the two choices and, even if they didn't like Yang's proposals, the choice to vote out Trump would be an easy one. Meanwhile, Yang would be stealing a chunk of Republican voters away from Trump, because he offers them something that Biden doesn't.

So Yang is better because of betting odds? People didn’t vote for him, that’s your first tell,2nd is you think he’d pull Republicans off Trump? Have you met Trump voters? Their going nowhere,never mind voting for an Asian.
