The “line graph extending beyond the region of the plot” thing seems like a purposeful and perhaps powerful data viz choice. I tell my students that your aesthetics should emphasize the message of your graph. This choice emphasizes that this isn’t “normal”, it’s quite extreme.

This is not a subtweet of anyone in particular and it's going to annoy some people since I have a lot of Bayesian followers/friends but...one thing I noticed is that once someone uses a strongly informative prior, it becomes 10x harder to convince them they're wrong.
