Comment: We need to keep this open as the browser is still in use on the dataset page

How can we best scale the bar size so that the maximum number (of descendants or occurrences) still renders?
Do need a single scale across an entire dataset? Or even across all datasets?
Is there possibly a way of knowing the maximum number within a single dataset?
For a checklist the maximum of descendants for sure is the maximum of any of the root taxa. This is sth we can probably calculate if its worthwhile.
For occurrences its a get max query, also possible, but probably sth we might wanna store upfront - or is caching good enough?
Option 1) same scale for all. Use average figures for the max number that makes the bar 100%. If a record has more than that still show 100% plus maybe an indicator (color?) that there is even more?
Option 2) scale each dataset and use some service to detect the maximum within a dataset and scale all accordingly

I don't like the bar style at all, but can live with it (I prefer just the text).
Correct behavior to me would be rescaling (in JS) based on the data the browser has to render.

true, another
Option 3) rerender ALL bars whenever new data is loaded with the new scale

Option 4) is the best. Remove the bars and only show the number!
Agreed to remove bars for now

Comment: we show numbers only and no bars
