Editing to let people know that I will be blocking anyone who feels the need to tell me why this graph is inaccurate. I truly don't care, but feel free to chime in with your useless take and land a spot on my block list! ๐Ÿ™‚

Starting the y-axis zero wouldn't change the shape of the curve at all, but it would make the increase seem less dramatic.

    It's a ~10% increase, but the scale makes it look like the count shot up by 10x at first glance. I know that's why you always need to look at the axis labels, but graphs like this are purposely presented this way because they're easy to misinterpret for the average person.
