But then overlayed on it is a nested text outline that seems to interact with the sequence diagram. Based on the outline numbering I expect the time sequence to be 2a,2b,3,4. but based on positioning within the sequence diagram it seems that the order should be 2a,3,2b,4. I don't understand how this is intended to be read.
