I also think it's interesting the blood sugar doesn't go above 120 after a meal.
Well, it does, actually. The mean average reading doesn't, but there's a range that goes right up to 160. Also the chart doesn't take into account precisely what is eaten - it's not based on individuals eating the exact same portion size or amount of carbs.

it seems non-diabetics also have a little dawn phenomenon.
They probably do; it's just that their bodies also release insulin at the same time as glycogen, meaning they don't actually have an overall increase in blood sugar.
