Anna, I am so glad you brought this up. I just watched the video, too, & immediately was concerned about the same thing as you. I don't use the lines on the mat either. There are so many ways I use my big ruler. I am planning to order one but had the same concern as you.
Hopefully somebody who has one will address this issue for us.
