Side question about error total for cube actions

In Response To: A quadruple or quintuple whopper (roll out) (joe freedman)

XG reports these equities and error totals on this cube:

No Redouble: +0.308
Redouble/Take: +0.187 (-0.121)
*Redouble/Drop: +1.000 (+0.692)

Best Cube action: No Redouble / Take

I don't think this is unique to XQ. Shouldn't the error for dropping the cube be 1.000-0.187 = 0.813? In other words, if you made the right decision by taking the (erroneously offered) cube you could have had equity of -0.187 but instead you got equity of -1.000 ?
