Yeah, this is actually a good example of why it's important to add a bit to the raw Matrix Profile. The point is anomalous with respect to the pattern preceding it (the "sawtooth"), so in this case one needs to consider the whole Matrix Profile. It's a good callout in that the graph isn't a complete anomaly detection system; it more demonstrates how a single anomalous point can impact the Matrix Profile value.
