I'd argue that the Mercator projection is not the right projection if you want to show the entire world. The distortion introduced over large areas is fairly extreme, and I think relative geographical sizes are fairly important for displaying that kind of graphic. |

Yeah, but the areas which are most distorted are also usually the least populated, by a long shot, so it may be just fine for showing anything related to people... sure Greenland's way too huge, but, well, meh...
