I’m going to be frank, and apologize for taking so long to reply, but this sounds like a classic case of naivete and overconfidence.
It’s routinely demonstrated that stats can be made to say whatever we want and conclude whatever the person who made them wants, and via techniques like the ones used in p-hacking etc, it should eventually become evident that economics are not exempt from similar effects.
Add in the replication crisis, and you have a recipe for disaster. As such, the barriers you need to clear: “this graph about economics- a field known for attracting a large number of people who don’t know the field to comment on the field- means what I say it means and is an accurate representation of reality” are immense.
