I understand that this is what the engine returns when the selection is empty, and I'm prepared to accept it as a necessary method for the engine to describe an empty insertion point, but just because the engine reports char 13 to 12 doesn't mean the engine should accept setting the selection to char 47 to 26, or to word 9 to 3, or line 7 to 4. The engine returns one exact format, and allowing it to accept that one exact format should be all it does. There's no reason other than bad history to do so.
