Yes!

I presume that gnuplot's output isn't meant to vary much across
different OSes, but presumably there can be platform differences
not least in the fonts available.  So although in theory anyone
can test someone-else's code on their own system, it might not
follow that weird results that one person gets will also happen
for everyone else.

That's why I thought that if URLs are given to an OP's image(s)
it would be better if different images had different URLs.
