The slopes don't match. In the original rectangle the red/green triangles have a slope of 3/8, but the final rectangle has slope 5/13 (just count the squares). 3/8 and 5/13 are very close but not equal, so there is a sliver of white space in the final rectangle which is hidden on purpose by thickening the lines around the triangles. That sliver contains one square worth of space.
