It certainly is confusing.

While wee on the subject, the image tag method currently used is deeply
unsatisfactory, since it arbitrarily limits the number of images. I'm
vaguely in favour of moving to a top left/bottom right co-ordinate based
syntax for specifying which part of the image to display once we have
single image. Thoughts?
