I'm not sure what the reason is for the nit-picking. It's your roof and what's done is done. You're not going to tear up the shingles and do it "right."
Anyway the reason for the 1/2 tab stagger is to get the seams as far away from the tab gaps as possible. You got a seam within a few inches of a tab gap, that makes a leak.

Shingles are not nearly as good as they were 50 years ago. Trying to keep costs down and the EPA happy, they don't use nearly as much asphalt now as they did back then. Underlayment wasn't necessary then but it is important now.
