Setting aside the issue of multiplicity raised
by the numerous simultaneous -- and mutually
dependent -- tests possibly implied here,
you can use -separate- to produce two distinct
response variables from one, and then employ
distinct symbols.
It would still be a propaganda graph, to use
Tukey's term. (In revenge against poor referencers,
I'll just give Tukey 1972 as the reference.)
It might be more subtle to use (say) a line to indicate
threshold levels and let the user think about
the graph without the propaganda. Is the
difference between 0.05% and 0.04% scientifically
interesting as well?
