That one confuses a lot of people. The intent seems to be go east of the marker, when on a north/south course. The fact that the marker is the wrong color for a east/west course seems to be overlooked.
That's why I never use the compass and marker rules to navigate, they are just too limited. Given time you could find a dozen more spots like this. Some are documented in the old posts in this forum.
Use a reliable chart (Bizer) and stay out of the shallow spots.
