Fooled by visualization Kieran Healy and John Mullahy show data is interpreted differently depending on how one chooses the scales of their axes: They certainly would. See e.g. this pair (after an example by Bill Cleveland) where the perception that two lines are converging is driven entirely by the aspect ratio.
