I would have to add that scenario specifically, I guess I could go with `((nothing, lim), nothing)` for setting the upper x limit, for example. What is the scenario in which you want to do this, so I understand it better. Are you adding plots but don’t want zero to shift? Also, `ax.finallimits` is what contains the actual current limits
