It is important to note that due to horizontal gene transfer, the early days of life, and still bacteria to this day due to bacterial conjugation, are actually a graph and not a tree, see also: Figure "Graph of life".
Definitely have a look at: coral of life representations.
TODO vs Phylogenetic tree? www.visiblebody.com/blog/phylogenetic-trees-cladograms-and-how-to-read-them:
Cladograms and phylogenetic trees are functionally very similar, but they show different things. Cladograms do not indicate time or the amount of difference between groups, whereas phylogenetic trees often indicate time spans between branching points.

Source. Fantastic work!!! Some cool things we can easily see:Mostly data driven.

A phylogenetic tree represents a hypothesis of ancestral relationships among sampled lineages. Branch points indicate inferred common ancestry; a rooted tree specifies direction from ancestors toward descendants. Branch length may encode elapsed time or evolutionary change, but a cladogram need encode neither.
A gene tree follows sampled gene copies, whereas a species tree summarizes lineage relationships at the species level. Distinguishing these objects matters when incomplete lineage sorting or introgression produces different histories for different genomic regions. Computationally, inference over unknown ancestral states can use belief propagation on the tree.
