Ah, I was missing that bit of information, and it explains why I was seeing these two values. Thank you stevage, I'll update the post with this info and cite you.

Vector tiles are super un-intuitive. They took me a very long time to get my head around, and I still feel shakey on some of the details.

Thank you - I will watch that with my coffee. I also realize this means I set the extent to 512 in the mvt file - that means I won't benefit from that subpixel precision you mentioned - I'll update the code and test it out
