It is a well-known fact that the best way to get an answer on the
internet is not to post a question, but to post the wrong answer!

Arrays and typedefs can be subtle things in C, and are easily
misunderstood - they can seem to work the way you want to start with,
but other things happen when they get passed around via pointers and
function parameters.  It is good to question it like you did - that's
how you learn, and can also aid others in learning.  There is never a
shame in asking a (topical :-) ) question here, nor in making a mistake
and getting corrected.  There's only a shame in not asking when you are
not sure, or not accepting it when a mistake is corrected.
