The perspective is really weird so this isn't as clear-cut (ha) as you think.The base has a flat and wide enough foundation that parts of the boulder needs to phase into the ground in order to tilt from a microscopic cut in the middle, and the boulder is visibly not tilted, and the undestroyed section at the bottom shows that displacement didn't occur. The features appear to be too consistently drawn to be art mistakes; it is not like a single panel is getting nitpicked.
I never mentioned outlierdom. Admittedly 9-A for early DS is a bit questionable considering there's barely any 9-B stuff there, but that's not the point hereIt is my impression that when it comes to the depiction of a feat vs claim of an art mistake, there is a burden to provide evidence of the existence of an art mistake (which is different than claiming that the feat is an outlier).
I'm simply claiming that considering that Tanjiro's task is to split the boulder and that task is repeatedly stated, the writer would have made it clearer if something else happened instead, such as Tanjiro pulverizing such a large amount of stone.
But in the very scan that you posted, it says the boulder was "split".
This isn't the only time, I believe.
