All three panels are the same height on the object, so a tier is only honest if the PRINTED images hang level. The tier below is computed the way the Garden set's is: fitPrintArea gives each panel its maximum on its sheet, then the set levels down to the smallest of those heights. 0.00% is structural, not luck.
