At this rate in 2028 they’ll be at -11th
Tbh I don’t see where this is bad (except maybe the 0 label). Why should “up” always be “better”? There are countless other examples where this is not the case. Or am I missing something here?
It measures place, rather than performance (like medals got). It’s a line graph, when there’s no events between the data points, so it should be a bar graph. And yeah, up is better.
A bar chart for this kind of data makes no sense to me as the bar doesn’t really represent anything. A scatter plot is a good choice and adding a connection line for readability is imo not so bad. It should however be inverted going up to 1 and not down to 0.
Line chart is fine here as it’s the same measure over time.
WE’RE NUMBER ZERO! WE’RE NUMBER ZERO!
The values are even incorrect. 2008, they got 63rd. 2024 they got 19th.
…does it not say 63rd for 2008?
Yeah it does. I fucked up, they actually placed 64th and not 63rd. Importantly I’m not a reporter.
