If you set **anything**, it should not be overwritten. This includes the `colormap` and `vmin`/`vmax`. 2. If you want very specific/consistent behavior, you'll need to explicitly provide those arguments. 3. The only safe times to assume a diverging colormap is when `vmin = -vmax` or when `center is not None`. If you want a diverging colormap for other situations, you need to specify `cmap` in the plot call. All in all, I think what I'm getting at is we may want to tighten up on when we switch from the default `cmap` to the diverging `cmap`.
