…ap stop order, category-axis type_, tick labels past 1e6 Five silent-wrong-output defects found by the 0.0.7 audit, each reproduced before the fix and covered by a test after it. - facet_chart: a by= array whose length differs from the data's row count passed the DataFrame through unsplit, so every panel drew the whole dataset under its own label. It is now a ValueError naming both counts, for chart-level and mark-level data= tables alike. Mapping data keeps its documented pass-through for scalar and short config values. - Category detection: an object-dtype column whose non-missing values are all real numbers (a list holding a None, an object ndarray, Decimals, a pandas object Series with NaN) became a categorical axis with labels '1', '(missing)', '3' at positions 0, 1, 2, while the color channel classified the same input as continuous. `Figure._is_category_like` now applies the color channel's rule (`channels._object_array_is_real_numeric`); missing entries ingest as NaN through a shared `columns.object_missing_to_nan` (pandas NA included, which NumPy alone refuses). Strings, bytes, bools and mixed values stay categorical. - Colormap stops: out-of-order positioned stops were clamped CSS-style, so [(1, "red"), (0, "blue")] resolved to 255 red texels and one blue. A decreasing position is now a ValueError that points at the offending stop. - Axes: `x_axis(type_="time"|"log"|"symlog")` on an axis the marks made categorical was accepted; time turned the labels into 1970 epoch ticks and log put category 0 off the axis. `_axis_kind` raises a build-time error (G3: scale conflicts are errors, not coercions). - Tick labels: `_fmt_linear` / `fmtLinear` formatted every |v| >= 1e6 (or < 1e-4) tick with one mantissa decimal regardless of step, so a 50,000-step axis read "1.0e6, 1.1e6, 1.1e6, 1.2e6, 1.2e6, 1.3e6, 1.3e6" and 1,250,000 was labelled "1.2e6" — in the browser, SVG, PNG and PDF alike. The mantissa now carries the digits between the value's magnitude and the step's last significant digit, implemented identically in Python and TypeScript with a node-backed parity test. Spec: chart-grammar.md G3 (category/type conflict, value-based category detection, by= row coverage), styling.md (non-decreasing stops), renderer-architecture.md §6.2 (exponential label precision).

…g, exponential label edge cases - facet_chart: a mapping-backed column that a mark channel names as row data must have the by= length too (checked in _facet_check_mark_channels, where the channel->column linkage is known); short config values in the mapping keep passing through. - columns: the object->NaN hole-filling pass is counted as an ingest copy (§29 honest accounting). - Exponential tick labels: clamp the step exponent so 10**e cannot underflow to zero on subnormal steps; raise the mantissa cap from 8 to 15 so a 1e-3 step at 1e6 magnitude still labels distinctly; format the mantissa with JavaScript's half-up tie rounding on the exact binary value (Python's :e is half-even, so 1.25e6 at one digit read 1.3e6 live and 1.2e6 exported). Parity test cases added for all three.

… 16-digit label cap, node guard - _facet_check_mark_channels also checks a plugin mark's declared columns, and skips a color channel whose value is a CSS color literal even when the mapping holds a key of that name (paint, not a row column). - Exponential tick labels may carry 16 fractional digits (17 significant), so two adjacent f64 values at a one-ulp step still print distinctly; parity case added. - The TS/Python parity test skips on node < 22.6 and passes --experimental-strip-types on 22.x instead of failing at the import.

Fix 5, a 50,000-step axis from 1,000,000 to 1,300,000. Left: v0.0.7 labels. Right: this branch.
The other four fixes replace silent wrong output with a ValueError (1, 3, 4) or change axis classification (2), so their evidence is the regression tests rather than a picture.
