Thanks Jase, glad you appreciated what I was intending - to show concisely the detail in my unfinished image. No lines crossed at all IMO and I make no apologies whatsoever for how that was done, especially since I clearly stated what I had done in the caption of my image.

I guess that's one vote to the "deception" camp, but I'm giving 2 votes to the "innovative" category - its just so engaging.
Another vote for not reading the caption to the image perhaps? I think my only mistake was assuming everyone would immediately realise the "spacial adjustment" done in this very well known field ... hence the apology to the purists in my post.
