I’d be nice to have a color legend next to the y-axis of hue

Or even better, change the color of the points and lines to match the associated hue.

That’d be nice.

90 and 120 are rolling through the greens. Are posters mostly green? That seems odd to me.

The problem is that averaging hue makes no sense at all because hue is not a longest scale.

If you take a red poster (0) and a blue poster (240), it averages to green. Or take red (0) and red (359), averaging to cyan (180).

The average of 0° and 359° is obviously 359.5°.

it’s a radial scale.

It would have made more sense if they had shown the distribution of hue as a polar graph and just had one every decade to show how it changes over time.

yeah that part of the graph is completely useless to people who haven’t memorised the exact degrees of the scale, which is most people, even most artists
