You can make one to fit but I'm not so sure it's that as much as the height of a billion (discernable because we're given a $1B difference) being very small and the true zero-axis being much higher up than the bars suggest. If I wasn't phone posting I'd fire up Paint and move the bars together to find out.

Still incredibly dishonest at best (and a weird slant to take if this is indeed meant more for German-centric consumption as the watermark implies)

It's tricky though, if you look at all the communities in the US, there's going to be oodles of small ones, and a small number of big ones.

If you're trying to examine communities, then this might be an appropriate way to represent how they behave.

But I think a lot of people will be thinking about people, and that's where the cumulative population is really important.

Yeah plotting cumulative population is super necessary here, even fixes:

They figured out how to launch one and a half blue whales into the sun without ever thinking about whether they should.

Oh poo poo! I just figured out why they call whales whales, it's because they wail. gently caress. I thought today was going to be a waste of time.

Bad news friend, it's actually derived from the Old English word hwæl, meaning whale.

Y axis too but not as much. I was wondering why the lines crossed north of 50%.

Here's a good rule of thumb: if you think you've figured out a piece of etymology, you're wrong.
