    Doesn’t the layout get designed and approved in some DTP software where it looks perfectly fine because it’s all 2D?

      Yeah, but the fold isn’t a mystery, it’s kinda in print 101 territory. Anyone involved in a product like that book would be aware from the start.

      Not saying some “has the final say” kinda guy didn’t sign off on a pdf and act surprised, but in reality that book probably got signed off on a physical copy.

      In reality it’s probably just plain intentional for design reasons and has a bonus side effect that someone LOLed about after.
