Geometry changing vertical with newgeometry for horizontal margin

I have a document with a defined set of margins and somewhere in the middle I need to add 1 cm to each of the side margins without changing the vertical layout. However, when I use newgeometry to change the side margins the package also changes the value of topmargin. For example, see this MWE:



documentclassarticle
usepackage[top=3.5cm,left=4.5cm,right=3.5cm,bottom=3.0cm]geometry
begindocument
thetopmargin
newgeometryleft=3.5cm,right=2.5cm
thetopmargin
enddocument


It prints -9.68535pt on the first page and -13.87262pt on the second.



It looks like the package does not take the options in the preamble into account when recomputing the newgeometry. Is this the expected behavior? Shouldn't the package “remember” the previous parameters and adjust only those necessary?
