For real, why is the x axis labeled with the y axis label, and why is the y axis label at the origin?
Is this AI, or just someone that slept through high school math?
Definitely not AI, the author is very much against it. But yeah, the graph labelling is really weird
Expecting cartoonists to create perfect graphs is asking too much, I think.
There's only one XKCD.
I don't want perfect, I just want it to follow the rules that we all learned in middle school. I will die on this unimportant hill.
I would assume the point is getting across but the text gets to be horizontal which conserves space and eases readability.
The fact that the gp got it means it is working as intended not trying to teach you rise over run.
