I don't think the two are in conflict: The option itself expresses a rectangular prism (within the coordinate space), which may contain a more complex shape. Perhaps it would make sense to replace the referenced sentence with something like the following?
"
In effect, this describes a rectangular prism, which may be used as as a coarse representation of a more complex shape that fits within it. (See Section 2.3.2 for more detail on the correspondence between shapes and uncertainty.)

4: Conflict between text and figure
In "1.2. Resolution and Uncertainty," it says about uncertainty:
"In effect, this describes a rectangular prism." However, the ASCII
art in section "2.3.2. Latitude and Longitude Uncertainty", the shape
is more complex than a rectangular prism, it has angles and cut-outs
which don't seem to follow from anything.
[BA] Any opinions on how we should resolve this?
