Wouldn’t this be better if they didn’t overlap at all, since nothing is listed in the intersection?

The absence of overlap highlights the issue.

States with abortion bans are not helping families who want kids with guaranteed family leave.

But there is overlap in this picture, which communicates visually that there are states that have extreme abortion bans and also paid family leave.

If two sets have no elements in common, the regions do not overlap.

B = {2, 4, 6}

A ∩ B = ∅
