Trivial but Valid, Alternate Solution to Seven Squares (No. 100)

This is my somewhat trivial solution to Professor Layton and The Curious Village's Puzzle No. 100. It wasn't accepted. However, there are clearly seven squares of various sizes, and no pin is used more than once. Compare this image to the text of the puzzle:

Your task is to draw lines between the pins on this board to form seven squares. The seven squares do not have to be uniform in size, but you can only use each pin once.

All righty then, give it a shot!

If you ask anyone to count the squares in my solution, they will say seven, every time. If you then show them the "real" solution, they will say I cheated (apparently by appealing to Nintendo's self-evident authority, correct or not). But how? I say this solution should count, because nowhere does it say that every pin must be used!
