The graph actually doesn't show you where any of the conflicts are because it's a graph. The tree actually shows you all sources for different versions of a dependency and what actually gets selected. I think people are just attracted to the visual graph but the Dependency Hierarchy view is in every case after talking to users what they actually want. Look at the Dependency Hierarchy view and I'm pretty sure you'll come to the same conclusion.
