--- Comment #3 from Asaf Bartov <[email protected]> ---
Thanks for this insightful comment!  

Yes, this sounds exactly like the problem we had been having.  My use of "row
number" is naive -- that is, I meant that the data was identified by index
(incorrectly assumed a row index rather than a column index) rather than by
key.  So yes, it matches the column number problem you describe.

So I'm hoping this is resolved now, but I am still confused by two statements
you make:
1. One one hand, you say the "problem was solved by trying to make sense of
~17k files and removing ~15k stale files/duplicates."
2. OTOH, you say "Yes, the column number of country X in file Z.csv might
change between any given day."

So... if graphs still rely on column numbers, are we still in essentially the
same situation, wherein we can't trust a graph to still be pointing at data for
the same country after N days/months?
