5.3.1 Information does not fit the section #1477

In section 5.3.1, the title is Data Collection and it belongs in the Ethics chapter, but the content talks about scaling of the graph and how switching axis of the graph can be deceiving. This should go into Ethics about making the graph instead of "data collection".

A potential solution is to talk about the consequences of improper data collection and data cleaning; such as filling columns of NA with the wrong data, or omitting certain variables when you're not suppose to.
