At the very least there should be an error.\r\n\r\n### Matplotlib Version\r\n\r\n3.7.1\r\n\r\n### Installation\r\n\r\npip","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Wrzlprmft","@type":"Person","name":"Wrzlprmft"},"datePublished":"2023-05-12T18:50:52.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":20},"url":"https://github.com/25871/matplotlib/issues/25871"}
