> I would say that nearly everything in the real world (outside math) especially computer related uses top left as an origin.

I concede that point, its not want to meant, but I did express my point poorly.

  My point is:
  - A lot of things work like books[1]: top-left to bottom-right
  - However, 99+ % of graphs (anything from revenue numbers to health data) in all mediums (books, newspapers, websites) use a bottom-left origin. Never seen a revenue bar growing from top to bottom. In fact, I dont remember the last time i have seen a graph not using the I. Quadrant. Do you?
  - D3.js (imo) is a lib to create graphs from data, but does not abstract this problem away? Why?
