Short answer: absolutely.

Long answer: It's not the only one. The majority of pesticides also kill the majority of gut bugs. Meanwhile, the very definition of a preservative is something that kills microbes, thus delaying spoilage. Everyone sits there and shakes their head about the over-use of antibiotics, but every single time you eat something with any kind of preservative, you are literally swallowing a (tiny, but cumulative) dose of antibiotics.

Bitter answer: Even if this chart did make an impression on someone in charge, the likely outcome would be to remove that one herbicide from the legions in use, see the rate of autism go down not one whit, then shrug and put it back into rotation. Fixing something of this magnitude requires a change of equal magnitude.
