Facet grid is a godsend, haven't seen anything like it in Excel. However, I will admit ggplot syntax and functionality is cryptic af, so I ask chatgpt for help and it's surprisingly accurate on this topic

Ggplot syntax (and tidyverse syntax in general) is incredibly clear when you compare it to the alternatives. Just try to use plotly to do anything simple and it'll take 6x the time.
