:: It doesn't, for example, exclude the equally reasonable distribution made by both '''Mathematica''' and '''R''', which both, very sensibly and

:: Even the tiny margin chosen, perfectly sensibly, by R and Mathematica, already yields a different set of sparkline levels to those you are showing, without any departure from good sense or the terms of reference
:: The task does not require use to assume that the lowest value observed is invariably and necessarily identical to the the bottom of the scale, or that the highest value is invariably and necessarily identical to the top of the scale.
