Shouldn't the Japanese character be as displayed at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E4%BB%A4#Japanese?

Both forms are supplied but the handwritten form is the default one. See

for the wiktionary version.

The references used to decide which form are given on this page:

I assume that the original creator of the image found that the above one was correct for the handwritten case.

You are right. After conferring with a few Japanese people, there is indeed a difference between the handwritten and printed styles of that character (interestingly, one they they had not been consciously aware of before I asked).

Thank you for your attention.
