A common type of graph in my work is to see the value (from 0 to something) represented on the x axis, and instead of the y representing a value, it represents time. The closer the Y value gets to the x-axis, the closer it is to the current time, and the further away the further back in time. When i pass plot_dates timestamps for the y axis, and integers for the x axis it simply displays the y-axis as floats.
