Pareto chart should not be used to represent a categorical data graphically with an ordinal scale of measurement. WHY IS THIS TRUE?

Hi,

Since for the ordinal data we need to maintain the order. In pareto charts we sorted data according to frequency that might change the order of the data. Hence Pareto charts are not used for the data which is having ordinal scale of measurement.

Thanks,
