ValueError: Tile index out of boundsDescription
I'm not sure if I'm using terminalio correctly, but I found no examples and this is all the documentation: https://docs.circuitpython.org/en/latest/shared-bindings/terminalio/index.html
I know there is an extra library adafruit_display_text (works with the exact same setup) but plain terminalio is also supposed to work which is why I think this is a bug.
