Jokes aside this is always a good thing, the ability to roughly visualize graphs real quick can be really useful for sysadmins, data-massagers and other nerds. If you don't use this or the alternatives suggested in the comments code your own! Make your logs, analysis tools and other visualizations prettier! Add colors or other bells and whistles at your convenience!
