Thanks John :)
I noticed that 150px value accidentally by searching for a better
vertical offset for the first bordered li and used margin-top: 150px; in
my test case. With this offset, the "mirrored image" between the dots
starts with the first line of the photo. (And a border-bottom-width of
150px for the li would show the entire "zone" and more fun while
scrolling.) This value seems to be resolution-independent.
Maybe that could be a hint why different parts of Kara's images showed
up in the first test case and why removing some li with borders in
Kara's original page did trigger the bug to appear.
