R. David Murray added the comment:

If your version was correct, 'python'[-2:] would produce 'n', which is not what it produces.  Perhaps you being confused by the fact that the diagram is pointing the indexes *between* the characters?  That's the point of the mnemonic and I find it very useful to think of it that way, myself.
