I think it's an occupational hazard. If you don't have people interested in numbers you don't have finance people and analytics people. The people who are interested in numbers are unfortunately also generally the kind of people that don't understand that other people aren't interested in numbers. There are correlating data with excitement because it's what they feel.

Or analytics guy was having a rough week and said he was burning out from dealing with The analytics report. On the 6th it does this and on the 8th it did this and the 9th we had this sale. 99% of the people in the meeting only care that it's up and to the right, flat, or down into the right

The graph technically needs two to three points on it and you need to explain why it's aimed in whatever direction it's aimed.
