RMMZ Odd battlefield sprite offsetY

[Tsukihime]

Noticed something odd when I was trying to align my window to my grid



Window doesn't align properly.
Then I found this

Spriteset_Battle.prototype.createBattleField = function() {
    const width = Graphics.boxWidth;
    const height = Graphics.boxHeight;
    const x = (Graphics.width - width) / 2;
    const y = (Graphics.height - height) / 2;
    this._battleField = new Sprite();
    this._battleField.setFrame(0, 0, width, height);
    this._battleField.x = x;
    this._battleField.y = y - this.battleFieldOffsetY();
    this._baseSprite.addChild(this._battleField);
    this._effectsContainer = this._battleField;
};

Spriteset_Battle.prototype.battleFieldOffsetY = function() {
    return 24;
};

Any idea what that offset is for? What's the point of moving the battlefield up 24 pixels?
Can I replace it with 0? lol

 

[??????]

maybe for screen shake effect? like, so it doesnt show the black border nonsense? idk, just guessing.

The default shake screen is a horizontal move. It has nothing to do with the Y/vertical axis I believe.

Oh this is why...the status window lol...
This is with the 24 pixel offset. If it's not offset, it would be even further down into the window.
