Thanks for this summary! I definitely hadn't seen the point about comparability between blobs of data because of the alignment. But that really seems like an odd point to me, as I almost entirely see / use these with time series data, where pretty much the whole point is to compare the evolution of the values over time using their "vertical" location, with a was to see the shape of a distribution of values at each point in time, at a glance.
