No problem. For the plot area issue, please set me as responsible. I'm mulling over the design of functions that return the pieces of a plot as picts so you can superimpose and append them any way you like.

Yes, I guess it is a clipping issue. Along the same lines, I had wanted
to make a few plots with the same plot area, but these plots had
different width y-axis labels so plot-width and plot-height did not help
(neither did padding the smaller labels with "\u00A0").

Can I open some github issues for these? I'd be happy to label myself as
"responsible".

        Oooh, that's interesting. After sending the first email I'd actually
        gone ahead and hacked make-pen% to always use the square cap --
        which
        looked "matplotlib good" for my plots -- and was planning to
        expose that
        parameter in a pull request. But I won't anymore.

        For the record, my actual problem was with 2 specific points:

             1. Plot lines extended slightly past the x/y axes


    Is this actually a clipping issue?

             2. Dashed horizontal rules looked better as square lines


    True. So do extra axes, plot boundaries and tick lines.

    I'd be perfectly happy if all the decorations, and renderers that
    produce decoration-looking things like axis lines and rules, always
    used square caps. Maybe even 2D rectangles and other stuff that
    always draw just horizontal and vertical lines. I wouldn't even want
    a parameter for changing them back, pursuant to Plot's "looks great
    without users having to think about making it look great" design goal.
