I haven’t seen a single one of these posts have a legend but all of them use different colors.

A legend with 20 colours would be quite ugly and not that useful in my opinion. However, I should have said that year is encoded as colour to be 100% clear on the chart.

You could do the relevant color as the font color or background on the year, up top!

Not a bad idea to be fair but the way Vega works, this would be a huge amount of work and I'm still not sure about the aesthetics of it. The interactive version has tooltips so it becomes pretty clear when hovering.
