Mentioned that a couple of posts ago:
Floor "numbers" for human consumption in buildings are really only
labels (not always numeric), and conventions vary. The first floor in
the US is what we the ground floor, so their second floor is our first.
Think of the buttons in a lift. It's common to skip the 13th floor in
the US as well. So a building has physical floors, which have logical
labels, and align with the terrain in a certain way,
