This is totally different from my experience, these aren’t really things people consider to judge a pizza here…

Pizzas are obv all about the same roundness, ingredients ought to be regularly scattered on the pizza because with only 2-3 minutes in the oven they wouldn’t cook well if not. So the point is that the regularity of its shape are a given due to the speed of the process itself, it’s a necessary outcome, and irregularities aren’t minded by customers

Right, but focusing on “top share” misses a lot of detail. You could have one state where the the majority is renewables, but no single renewable category exceeds coal, so coal is listed. And you could have another that gets 90% of its energy from coal, and on this diagram they both look the same. That’s what I mean by misleading. It’s technically correct but it’s only part of the truth.

That makes sense. It would be interesting to change the X axis to Julian day (values 1 to 365) and then plot the data by year. That would expose seasonal differences and trends between years. And you could manually indicate annual means with tick marks on the Y axis.
