The pie charts with slices that each have a different radius is pretty, but creates a false visualization that doesn’t match the data. Readers see the area of objects when comparing them, and changing the radius, changes the area of each pie slice. By reducing the radius of the smaller values, the area is actually reduced much lower than the actual values.
