Reply to comment by teetee34563 in Kristin Emery's snowfall charts ... WTF? by mckzach

It is absolutely valid because it's about data representation. And it depends on purpose of this particular data reforestation. And your (and only your) assumption is that purpose of this particular case is to show that North got more snow then South. And like I pointed out this is not always the case. So you are introducing a big no-no to data representation - - inconsistencies. While country order is always consistent.

I made no such argument or assumption. I just brought to light that your snarky stock market comment was not a fair comparison.

It looks like your ability of abstracting is pretty low. 😋 I both cases those are Time series (you cannot represent accumulation without it). In case you have cumulative function, in another it is either simple f(x) =x or average skidding window. So comparison is very fair.
