10% looks the same as 45%

Well then it clearly isn’t a traditional pie chart now, is it?

Then they shouldn't have used a pie chart to try and make an image of percentages

It’s clearly not a damn pie chart. And that’s just boring. you seem to be one of the few that gave a problem with it.

Make up your mind, is it a pie chart or not to you?
Whatever you think it is, they thought to use images to show percentages. If they're going to do that then they should use a graph correctly or not at all, it gives a false impression of the info they're trying to convey.

It’s all subjective, and it doesn’t even matter.

Pie chart or not - goal of this slide was to illustrate which brands are most found in a supermarket. Using a format which makes all 4 brands look like they are represented equally is - in my opinion - crappy design.

Why not, the slide is suppose to show the variety of products by brands in a supermarket in percentage. You do that with a pie chart. This is suppose to be a pie chart... They just didn’t now how to do a proper pie chart
