No, I'm saying that they drew the diagram in a weird order so that the
signals were shown in functional groups (e.g. RA0-7 appear in order,
rather than in two separate areas).

The real slot is almost certainly numbered in the same order as the
standard slots (1 to 30 up the right side, then 31 to 60 back down the
left side).
