Displaying profit instead of revenue would have been more interesting, "Waooo!!! This company makes more money per second than what I make working a whole month!"

The problem is profit is too closely tied to accounting, and doesn't correspond to success or size.

[Houshalter]

Revenue is interesting because it shows how much is going to each company. Like how many people are buying Dell computers or Google ads, not just the amount of profit each company makes off them which can vary vastly for all sorts of reasons.

Yes a profit version would be very interesting.

also it be nice to compare how tech is doing against oil & gas and pharma (in profit)
