Yes. Another problem: A chart like this,

Bilabial     Labiodental     Dental     Alveolar    Retroflex     Palatal
Velar    Uvular     Glottal     Pharingial
Plosives ...
Fricatives ...

it's impossible to see what phoneme goes with what point of articulation!

If anyone's gonna give a chart out like this, please make it like this
instead:

Bilabial
Labiodental
Dental
...

Plosives
-
-
-

Fricatives
-
-
-

...

It would be greatly appreciated.
