Data visualization is hard, but what do you think is wrong with the graph?
- CivBase 3mo agoGraphs tell stories and the only story this one actually tells is "29-year high". It doesn't do a good job of establishing trends and its sample size is too low to discern how significant of an outlier this is. Actually there is a similar outlier on the bottom of the graph, which suggests the current outlier might not actually be that significant. And that's definitely not the story intended by the author.
