It’s fine for you to see it the way you do, but I never have heard Bros Nee or Lee refer to the foundations of the New Jerusalem as a boundry. If you have then provide the reference and assuming you are accurate I will concede the point.

Otherwise, you are conflating boundry of a local church with foundations of the New Jerusalem.

If you would prefer to view these 12 foundations as foundations of the city then the "fellowship of the apostles" would be akin to the foundation of the city which must be on "the proper ground". Since this foundation runs to the wall it would indicate that the fellowship of the apostles fully covers the "proper ground".
