Technically, those are the overlay layers you're circling. The base layer is properly fully hidden. It's worth noting that this used to be the case with players and heads as well long ago (where the hat layer was above the skull), but here it's only the bottom. Meaning the model rendering in head slot is ever so slightly offset up.
