Your use of rounded borders for the boxes is skewing the correct

Fair point. I have created an issue in barchart's issue tracker. I'll probably make rounded corners optional and turn them off by default.

Round corners have a small advantage: multiple blocks per bar which are all black cannot be distinguished without them because the line around blocks is also black. This could, however, easily be improved by making the line color configurable too. Probably best would be to have either "same color as block" or some configurable color, where the default is black.

Thanks for the feedback!
