There is an 𝑥 axis and it's not too hard to comprehend, although I'd prefer the dividing character to be newline rather than "|", or only show the surveillance year.

Also, the "trendline" is sus, an actual trendline cannot always be above data.

The years are either out of order or overlapping.

No, it's "surveillance year | birth year" and only every other value is listed. It would be nicer with a numerical value but it's fine.

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 6 points 1 month ago

Well, that's certainly intuitive.

I honestly don't know why they even list the birth year. It explicitly states "8 Year Olds", we can do the math.
