What BI Still Gets Wrong About Charts: Decades of defaults nobody actually chose
Friday, September 1812:00 PM PT
For decades, BI tools have shipped with chart defaults nobody actually chose—standardized boxes, rigid grids, and dual axes that imply relationships that don't exist. This talk dissects the "BI default" lineage and demonstrates how to build a chart library that functions as a cohesive set, not a random collection. We'll argue that the border around your chart is merely an apology for poor alignment—and show you how to delete it, reclaim your canvas, and build charts that actually communicate.
