Did I miss something, or isn't that backwards?

Since we accept that the Left sees Less on the Left, don't you need to trim 
the extra from the right side of the left image, and the left side of the 
right?  What does it accomplish to take image away from the left side of the 
left image, since there is already less there to start with?

As I write this I hold in my hands an untrimmed set of prints fresh from the 
lab (didn't think I could type & hold prints at the same time, didja?) and 
when I match up the nearest (foreground) set of homologous points the right 
edge of the left print clearly hangs out past the right edge of the right 
image.
