Research direction
Start with the Warnings section in CHANGELOG.md under 0.4.1, then read the linked discussion about the inverted bar-chart axis for context. Document the warning behavior in the project’s user-facing documentation, with coverage beyond the changelog; done means users can find and understand the warnings.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Warnings are only documented in https://github.com/observablehq/plot/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#041.
