Good point, the tradeoffs between making something visually interesting vs relevant from a visualization point of view were really tough on this project. I will look into some kind of compromise. Related data does not always look good next to each other.
More broadly, when I visualize a set of data I follow Alberto Cairo's guidelines of Organize, Compare, and Correlate. In this project, I moved away from that quite a bit because I was seeking to make something interesting as opposed to useful.
I was scratching an existential need I had to make this data accessible and interesting. :)
