What do the builders say today then? Apparently the concrete workers have followed the plans, so there can hardly be anything wrong with the plans? It doesn't really matter because if someone had actually drawn such a sill placement, you address it as soon as it's discovered for correction.
Well, you might do that, but unfortunately, it takes some time, and to not delay things, you proceed *sigh*
But I'm really curious about how they try to explain that this is how things should be.
