Wow, fits perfectly.

Redundant piecharts that eclipse each other. Nailed it.

Was expecting Euler diagrams in this...

What about people who know the difference but can never remember which is which

The green area isn't defined there's room for everyone

Pretty sure the green area is supposed to be the overlap of (1) and (2). 🙃

So, it's people who know what both a Venn and a Euler diagram are, but don't necessarily know the difference. One could argue that if you're in (1) and/or (2), you could reliably answer a quiz question correctly for what a Venn and/or Euler diagram is, therefore you wouldn't confuse the two.

So, maybe (3) could expand down like an hourglass, so that part of it is on the overlap and part of it is outside of both (1) and (2)...

Does Venn knows about this?

Best version is Wu-tang Clan and Things to Fuck With.
