Shouldn't that be one rank lower?

For those squares at the bottom to qualify as squares, they'd have to be... you know... squares.

You don't put a chess board on a round table and say the area around the board is another "square" do you?

Incidentally, that's why square tables are banned at the highest levels of play.
