One of the things about plotting is that, just because you CAN do something does not mean you SHOULD do it.
There is a very informative book, "The Visual Display of Quantitative Information", by Edward Tufte, which explains and shows a number of misguided ideas that people have about making graphs. One of these is a visual vibration effect that comes from having alternating lines and spaces such as are shown in the bar graphs above.

I don't gotta catch them all.
