d3's interactivity > excel and tableau in terms of quality data visualization.

anytime someone looks at a chart, they should be able to ask "but what happen's when x, y and z change?" being able to manipulate the data without forcing the audience to run calculations themselves should be the norm. it takes work, but i hope we get there someday.

That's exactly where we are heading. Data discovery made accessible to anyone via chart interactivity. Soon.
