I think blue and red are supposed to be "Profit" and "Loss", not revenues and costs, since I'm pretty sure all Olympics have both revenues and costs. Also, the Y-axis is already labeled deficit and surplus, so why not just use those instead of conflicting, misleading terms?
- There is another graph for detailed cost and revenue in the article (figure 2), the one is meant to be a summary to differenciate deficit and surplus
