The periodic table of elements is a towering achievement of scientific discovery, and of data representation. Its elegant structure, born from the fundamental properties of atomic structure, has revolutionized our understanding of chemistry and the physical world. However, this very success has led to a problematic contemporary trend: the misapplication of the periodic table format
