Doesn't matter now. He isn't gonna scribe it.

The workpiece NEVER "fits" when scribed. That's the whole point of
scribing--to MAKE it fit to the wall.

Normally, to scribe the right end, you would hold the piece in exactly
the position where it will go, but shifted, e.g. 1/2" to the left, and
scribe off of the right wall. But he can't do that if the board won't
fit in the alcove. He will have to hold it at an angle, which will
throw the scribing off, although not enough to make a difference, and
be a PITA.
