There is a pretty big issue here in that your statistical data is backward-looking and the choices of the high school students will matter 10-20-30 years in the future when the employment (and salary) landscape might look very different.
Maybe the Bureau of Labor Statistics's dataset includes data for past years. If Nanashi's tool allowed users to flick between the (inflation-adjusted?) data for different years, that'd illustrate vividly how salary trajectories can fluctuate over time.
Two obvious downsides: this would of course make more work for Nanashi, and past fluctuations are unlikely to be representative of future fluctuations.
