    These are in articles for the general public. Assuming even a general understanding of graphing is not reasonable in this case.

      I think completing pre-algebra (generally taught in middle school or high school) is sufficient to understand a table.

      And if you can understand a table, then you can understand a graph with a y axis break.

        As someone who has worked for many years in customer service and retail environments, I can conclude from your post that you haven’t worked directly with the public very much.

          I think you underestimate your customers.

          A 10 day weather forecast typically includes a graph with a y-axis break. It is meant for the general public, and most people have no difficulty interpreting it.
