I don't love it either but the scale does look the same across the four.

If you look at the vein(?) on the north side of the loop, there's a part that goes straight north and then east, with a break in the north leg. Makes it a lot more clear that it was zoomed in.

Two different scales at play. The geographic scale clearly changes in the last image, but thankfully the measurement scale (as indicated by the color bar below each picture) stays constant, which would be much more egregious in terms of making the image misleading if it did not.

Oh. Yeah, definitely. That would be way worse.
