Is the current behaviour even a bug? 
[`Robot.mouseMove`](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/23/docs/api/java.desktop/java/awt/Robot.html#mouseMove(int,int))
 says nothing about invalid coordinates.

It's probably even better…

So, the mouse seems to be positioned outside of the virtual screen bounds. For 
this reason, `MouseInfo.getPointerInfo()` cannot return anything.

This again raises the question, why does it return a non-null value on macOS?

What do you see on the screen? Does the mouse cursor or its part remain visible 
on the screen? What happens when you start moving your mouse?
