The rank is not the result
Do state income gradients remain distinct once uncertainty is shown?
Whiskers are approximate normal 95% intervals computed as b ± 1.96 × the supplied standard error. Ranking smooths the visual sequence by construction; it does not establish that neighboring states differ.

Reading notes
Approximate normal intervals are derived from supplied standard errors. Ranking is an ordering choice, not evidence of distinct state effects.
