Good question. You could think of it as a subtle but important difference...for lists, the item renderer is often very specific to the type of data being rendered. For charts, it is sometime very specific to the data schema, but just as often, purely a stylistic choice...do you want round points on your line, or diamonds? More importantly, do you want round points on the first line, diamond points on the second line, etc? As a stylistic (and per-instance) option, we wanted people to be able to develop style based themes for charts that just 'drop' into place. Or, if you were less charitable, you could claim it's just a mistake on our part, and itemRenderer should be a style everywhere J Ely.

Btw, why there is this inconsistency that in the Charts API itemRenderer is a Style whereas in the rest of the Flex 2 framework it is a property?
