That's a great point. So it's not a bug, it is a feature in some cases. :)
Maybe what we need is an option to switch between the two behaviors then.

I believe this behavior is great for over-compressed imagery JPEGs where
you have corrupted border of several "black-poisoned" non-black pixels
that you'd better remove and take from some other image in the mosaic,
since in this scenario you usually have an overlap.

make more sense to keep the last "-nb" pixels that are not nearblack
instead of dropping them. The effect is especially annoying when you
have image tiles and you end up with a 1-2 pixels gap between them.
I didn't test what happens if we change the behavior. So maybe there is
a reason why it was implemented this way?
