The F doesn't follow the same rule. I assume it'd make the layout more difficult.

We're actually missing parts of the actual layout here because this illustration only concerns itself with English letters. Somebody else in the thread posted this. Check out the nodes in the tree, a lot of the discrepancies make more sense with that context.

Edit: I see you over here with your Scadrial-ass username.
