Shouldn’t China be seen as tied for first in golds?

Good point, I guess the author missed that and forgot to indicate a tie

Thank you for doing that. It always bothered me that most outlets would display “1st” as whoever had the most golds. So if one country had 0 golds but 10 silvers they’d get put below a country that had a single gold and no other medals. I liked the weighted approach by type of medal. The others are just fun to look at too.
