because the code in drivers/tty/vt/selection.c indicates this:
See:
static int vc_selection(struct vc_data *vc, struct tiocl_selection *v, struct tty_struct *tty)
{
int ps, pe;
...
v->xs = min_t(u16, v->xs - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
v->ys = min_t(u16, v->ys - 1, vc->vc_rows - 1);
v->xe = min_t(u16, v->xe - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
v->ye = min_t(u16, v->ye - 1, vc->vc_rows - 1);
...
ps = v->ys * vc->vc_size_row + (v->xs << 1);
pe = v->ye * vc->vc_size_row + (v->xe << 1);

The userspace-provided xs,ys,xe and ye values are decremented by one
before ps and pe (the pointers into the text screen array) are calculated.
So, for the xs...ye values in the range from 1..max-screen-lines/columns
are expected.
