That graph is trash. The baseline needs to be at zero.
No it doesn't.
It's meant to illustrate a change and it does so perfectly fine. It's not a scientific paper.
It's a 32-34% increase looking at the graph. That's significant enough to shout about.
Imagine any change you could make surprising competition by 25% in any market. That's huge.
But you don't get that percentage from looking at the graph. You get that from looking at the numbers.
The graph height increases by 300% in the last ~~3 months~~ 9 days.
