Okay so far.

This makes no sense to me.

In my case when using 2000+ lines in the clipboard I end up with one line 
visible, and since I have line numbers visible I can see where it's at.

Using only 240 lines I see a full page worth of text.

I don't have any idea why you're having a different experience.

If you don't get any ideas on-list pretty quickly then contact support:

Hmm.  Turning off soft-wrap as a default condition changes things on my 
machine.  (Editor Defaults Prefs)

In the meantime here's a script that might help:

try
        
        tell application "BBEdit"
                set newDoc to make new text document with properties {text:(get 
the clipboard)}
                tell newDoc
                        select insertion point before character 1
                end tell
        end tell
        
on error errMsg number errNum
        set {cr, sep} to {return, "------------------------------------------"}
        set e to sep & cr & "Error: " & errMsg & cr & sep & cr & "Error Number: 
" & errNum & cr & sep
        beep
        display dialog e
end try

Put it in the script menu and assign it a keyboard shortcut.
