The skewness of the recently onboarded users is necessary because what the newly onboarded person does with the account is critical. Sure, they will have an activity up, but are they buying HP? That is critical information.
Case in point: The chart does not show it yet, but it is extremely important to know whether the new user is just delegating, following a trail, interacting with the game, or making posts. It also gives us a good idea of what the onboarder does once they have onboarded a user. If we were to ignore the quality of early education for the onboarder, then we can identify that as a gap where said onboarder can improve.
Evidence-based criticism to the onboarders. That is the objective of this program.
How about that: you make a separate stat for the last 30 days for the new users (which will obviously have very high activity retention), and keep the current year's stats always without the last 30 days. Otherwise, you can't reliably compare year-over-year retention rates.
That sounds like a very good plan going forward that will reveal good information to share to onboarders and the community.
