The amount of display indentation should be relative to the existing indentation, not absolute.

This may have something to do with ULS/ULE not being documented.

They got used in doc/webpage.ms nevertheless, which is how this discrepancy came to my attention (when I tried to convert low-level .nf/.in/.fi mucking about with idiomatic '.DS I'/.DE usage).
