That's a point.  A slight slant on the floor would have been a nice 
additional clue, but alas, there is no indication of such a thing.

Still, if it isn't Jonas's ship, or a similar one, how does one explain his 
observations (which are confirmed by Severian) about the architecture of the 
place?  And when they found the transporter room, Jonas was instantly able 
to activate the controls.
