This was totally tongue in cheek too. I fixed the graph. When I graduated college I erased my many years of math from my brain, so well in fact that I couldn't even plot this simple inverse relationship. Thanks for the heads up man! Adam, you are correct.

Granted while I think its more tongue in cheek, than actually literal. I also think I get the relation attempting to be portrayed, but my big difficulty is you have two things that indicate number of customers, and two things that indicate quality. So If I read the green line, as the number of customers increase ( i.e. we move to the right along the axis), I can only assume you mean the more customers seek quality product/ or a high quality product becomes more widely available. But I am absolutely baffled why the green line is labeled customers. Because when I take into account the label of the line, I say as customers increase customers increases in the quality of product. Which in my current state I can not comprehend exactly what that would mean. Similarly with the quality line as customers increase quality decreases in the quality of product. Which based on your post I think is what you were actually trying to get at in the end. Which would best be done by completely removing the green line, and removing the label from the black line. Which would just show the relation that as the number of customers increases, the quality of product they enjoy decreases.

Not all green teas are withered and if they are they are only withered for a shorter time than with white teas. Oxidation is uncontrolled in white teas and is purposely halted in green teas.
