The odd placement was due to my shaky hand!
I tried my best to align the lower edge of the screen of the device with the edge of the paper, but it was a bit tricky to drag them accurately. It wasn’t an attempt at perfection, but to get a relatively OK visualisation (mostly to satisfy my own curiosity and to get a decent visual idea of how the sizes actually relate to one another, but I figured I could just as well share it).
Dimensions are what the tool automatically offers, unfortunately - for devices, it’s the device dimensions, not the exact measurements of screens.

Happens to the best of us!
I was genuinely worried for a moment there that I’d got something very wrong and that A4 was smaller than what I’d remembered (since I didn’t have an A4 sheet at hand to compare in person with my Go 10.3), but then I looked at the numbers again and felt relieved.
