They recognized that they'd come off looking bad in most of the "key points" (exception being the open-ness of course) if they included us...

While the NumWorks calculator supports plotting functions, the software's decision for the initial range seems annoying to me. It uses a wide range by default. One has to tweak the range for the X (and sometimes the Y) values to get a better view of the graph. The calculator allows you to Zoom in on the graph. I think actually selecting the X (and also Y) range is a more direct approach. The lack of a regular manual (more than the single page on the company's web site) is annoying.
