Honestly now with chatgpt, matplotlib terrible API is less of a problem.

That's true, but still, there are things you just can't do in matplotlib that you can do better in other GPT-aware packages like plotly.
This is a great example of why the age of truly terrible software is going to be ushered in as LLMS get better.
When the cost of complexity of interacting with an API is paid by the LLM, optimizing this particular part of software design (also one of the hardest to get right) will be less fashionable.
