Further to my input on page 1 of this thread, i still think it is the case that the instrument is meant to indicate scale, and the poke in the eye means the scale is line of sight.
Furthermore, that it applies to all blue painted bodies of water in the quire. This is because with the page ordering of my interpretation, this is the first blue body of water that comes up. The rest of the blue bodies of water are generally same size or smaller.
This includes f75v which shows both blue and green for the top body, it is salt water but only fresh goes in. This leaves only a few green bodies that are not the same scale as the rest.
Therefore i think the blue paint versus green paint difference is even more telling than salt versus fresh water, it also indicates scale via this instrument and eyesight indication.
