> Story points aren't time... > ...burndown chart... The x-axis of a burndown chart is time, right? So if you create a chart that measures points/time then you encourage the idea that a certain number of points can/should be completed in a day, ergo that points are a proxy for units of time. Otherwise what's the point in the chart?

If you're measuring foo/time, then foo is probably not time. Unless you're measuring some kind of acceleration. Charts are supposed to be pretty and reassuring and go up and to the right. That keeps the managers happy!
