Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported violin-plot behavior with positive-only data, using the two attached screenshots as the expected investigation context. Compare the rendered plot and downloaded output, then locate the violin-plot implementation and add a regression test that captures both the negative-area and incomplete-frame cases once their cause is identified.
