The scale is neither linear nor logarithmic. What?

How else can you make it look like a linear grouping?

make it look like

Data processing isn't about making it look like something unless you are purposefully manipulating it.

But that's what happened here. The x-axis has been unevenly distributed.

Because the point isn't to compare 2 characters, but to see how one character performs in the books and in the movies.

And for that, it doesn't matter. But they could have used a bar graph instead.

Well, I'd like to know if Arwen's screentime/mention ratio is 2x or 3x that of the Frodo baseline. This arbitrary scale makes it impossible. It would not hurt to add more values to the axes, and perhaps a faint grid.
