I don't know enough about HighCharts. Funny to see that they also copied / were inspired by the Google Finance Charts sparkbar (that's what we called the thing that shows you the summary at the bottom with the handles that you can drag).

I'd imagine is a combination of "not built here", pride (google engineers always feel that they can build everything better than the outside world), and performance (Google was investing, and I imagine continues to invest, vast amounts of engineering in speed).

Oh I didn't know that was your invention! Well it is ubiquitous now!

That makes sense in terms of "built here" pride. Not at all surprised by that. Thanks
