Before you introduced the feature of placing pieces in other positions than the center, Greg, the very author of this page, noted that the interactive diagram wouldn't be very helpful for showing how the pieces moved differently than they do in Chess. So, far from being a far-fetched assumption, it is one that a qualified person already made.
I don't see any such remark from Greg, neither in the article, nor in the comments. Are you sure you are not attributing my own remark (which I added together with the Diagram, and deleted now that the problem is fixed) to Greg?
