Negative shims innit! It does look wrong, I keep looking at it but it's at the very least confusing.

Your assessment of it seems correct. I think you could use a 0mm mounting plate and a 4mm DBE because the mounting plates are designated 0,2,4 from a standard height, not that the mounting plate is literally 0mm thick, that would be incredible engineering.

@Airhead, have you used their Smuso hinge before? Seems to me like 'e' is labeled wrong in this diagram, as it seems to show the same dimension as DBE. 'e' should be the gap between the panel and door surely? Negative overlay = inset gap?
So if I want a 3mm door clearance, I should use a 2mm mounting plate and inset the bore 6mm from the door edge...
*sorry for the lack of wood carving or cabinet joints, but I'm far too unskilled for all of that.
