That is useful for showing the spreading of real data for a large number of instances or repated experiments, which we seldom store in .tab pages. The data is typically already analyzed, and we display the average value, occasionally along with its estimated uncertainty. Therefore, I think it is even more useful to offer error bars, indicating the nominal value +- the standard error, or +- the confidence interval. For example, in error bar charts:
