+ * column is another series, in its own color.
  *
- * **Both axes are measured, so both are labeled.** A line chart's readings are

- * nothing about how far along it is. The ticks sit at round numbers and the
- * range is widened to them, so the plot's edges are numbers a reader can name.
+ * Both axes are labeled, because both positions are values. The ticks sit at
+ * round numbers, and the range extends to them.
  *
- * **What a reader without the picture is told is how strongly the two relate**,
- * because that is the question a scatter is drawn to answer and the one a table
- * of the same numbers makes hardest to see. The summary gives each series'
- * correlation coefficient and how many points it rests on; the table has every

+ * The summary gives each series' correlation coefficient and its number of
+ * points. The table has every number, and the drawing is `aria-hidden`.

- * a `<span>` placed by percentage over it, which is how `LineChart` draws its

+ * Each point is a `<span>` placed by percentage over the drawing, as

- * A keyboard reader arriving on a page tabs through the whole header before
- * reaching anything the page is about, and does it again on the next page. This

- * **It moves focus, not only the scroll position.** An in-page link on its own
- * scrolls to its target and leaves focus behind, so the next Tab goes to
- * whatever followed the link, which is the header it was meant to skip. Pressed,
- * this focuses the target. A target that cannot take focus, which is most of
- * them, since `<main>` cannot, is given `tabindex="-1"` for as long as it holds
- * focus and has it taken off again when focus leaves, so the page ends up as the
- * consumer wrote it.

+ * scrolls but leaves focus behind, so the next Tab lands in the header. A
+ * target that cannot take focus, such as `<main>`, gets `tabindex="-1"` while
+ * it has focus, and the attribute is removed when focus leaves.
  *
- * **The address is left alone.** The press is handled rather than followed, so
- * no `#main` lands in the URL and no history entry is added, which matters to a
- * router reading the hash. The anchor is still a real anchor with a real
- * `href`, so before any script has run the link does what a plain link does:
- * it scrolls there and moves the point the next Tab starts from.
