        Nah. I hear your complaint but look up any stock ticker. Starting at 0 would simply cause too much white space and make it hard to see movements.

        The y-axis is clearly labeled allowing us to see that it’s about a 40% jump.

        No the axis shows a detailed increase with clearly stated numbers. This is just the first impression.

        Not really, no. You use a point of reference that’s clearly labeled. If you’d start the graph at zero, you would just end up with a lot of dead space.
