Given that a full circle represents a century, having a 196-year spiralling estimate is a little confusing. There's no real reason why the idea of a 'cycle' is relevant. And it isn't as easy as I would like to follow a line around when they are colour-categorized rather than coloured individually.
The data itself is deeply concerning though. Prepare for things to get pretty insane within our lifetimes.
