The same example (Compare differences over time) is documented in Line chart (Compare current versus previous period with time shift). I wonder if it makes sense to keep it in Lens as well. I redirected it to Line.

Considerations about the section Assign colors to terms:

1/ Depending on the chart type, the configuration options vary. The way it is currently documented in the section Configure color mapping in a chart, is quite confusing.

2/ I suggest we keep high-level recommendations like
- Color options and accessibility
- Best practices

and defer the specific settings to each single chart page.

Considerations about the section Create partition charts with multiple metrics:

It's floating in the middle of nowhere, adding little value to the overall page. I would remove it, and I'm not sure if it has redirect to another page.
