Comment:

 Hmm, what's the benefit of removing them, other than saving a few lines?

 A possible downside is that whenever a new country code gets added, we'll
 need to update the filter ASAP, or we'll later have to reprocess data.
 But if we don't remove any data entries in the aggregate step, we can
 easily add new country codes to the graphs and be done with it.

 Oh, and other people might use our .csv files, so we shouldn't restrict
 ourselves to our own visualizations here.

 I'd say let's leave them in, unless there are other reasons for taking
 them out that I didn't think of here.  What do you think?
