Measuring using new movement tools

[sumo55]

In the new rule book, on the bottom of page 8, it says: "When measuring distance, place the appropriate tool with its end in
contact with the object or character’s base being measured from..."

I noticed that there is no indication that you need to place the round edge of the movement tool in contact with the base (although this seems to be the clear intent).  Is this an oversight that will be errataed at some point?  Did I miss a rule somewhere else in the rule book?  Or is this actually how the rule works and my assumption of the intent of the round edge is incorrect?

Thank you.

"The end" is defined in the FAQ and explains that this requires the rounded end of a movement tool.
