I do not have time to do any analysis, but i would like the raw data that leads to that graph.
It feels too simplified.

@futurebird Only that it's not clear what the x-axis even is, or why data points are connected by a smooth curve.

Why is it shaded in?

@futurebird I guess that is the difference between 2025 and 2026 values? But then why are negative and positive differences shown in the same color??
