Yes, I saw that in the solution of the other one (and have changed my
plots to take this into account), but what is the advantage of the
aspect ratio default *not* being 1? I'm very curious. I'm not a
mathematician, just a student going through college, so I would love
to hear the why behind this.

Also, does this have much of an effect on all my other plots? Do I
have to pay attention every time to see if the axes are at different
ratios to each other? (Although in many plots I guess they easily
could be anyways.)

Thanks,
Erik
