Stair Shading

[Lin]

Well, ever since I started playing this game I noticed this room and this staircase. For years I thought the stairs were leading up into the river from the ground below, but I guess the staircase actually leads down to the river. It was because of the shading of the stairs and the only choice of a staircase tile that I thought this.

Here's the room:

See, I never actually paid attention to the shading of the stairs.  I figure that of course the ground is higher than the river.  I know dungeons have all 4 shading directions, but I guess they ran out of room in the overworld and figured nobody would notice.  I'm sure if you hunt hard enough, you will find all sorts of tile related perspective errors.  In fact, that might even be a theme for a dungeon.  Somthing like Etcher Cave or somthing.
