- gentleman11 5y agoAxis does not start at zero so the magnitude of the effect is exaggerated
- delecti 5y agoIt also looks a bit less dire when you display 2016.
- simondw 5y agoThat's potentially misleading in a couple ways: * By default, years before 2019 aren't turned on. 2016 in particular looks fairly close to 2021. * At first glance, it looks like 2021 is plunging straight toward 0 -- but wait, the y axis starts at 1065. The whole chart only covers the range 1065-1100. This year's level is currently 98.3% of last year's! Are things still bad? Maybe, but I would want an expert interpretation, not a confusing chart.
