Are the Isolation Schematics on the Victron Website Wrong?

This question has been asked before (@Charmcityboater) but not really answered:

It seems like the Victron diagrams below show the Multiplus BEFORE the Isolation Transformer in the chain from shore power to loads? I thought that the isolation transformer would be the first and only thing directly connecting to shore power and the multiplus would connect to the Isolation Transformer?

In that application the isolation transformer is being employed to create a 115V supply from the MultiPlus' 230V supply
