I seem to remember that action when working on a PDP11 using a VT100
terminal. It was as if the designers said, hey, you obviously want a CR
in the middle of the line, so there you go.
And to Linux users, TSO READY mode must look really odd when they find
they can move the cursor to a previous command and press Enter, but
nothing happens until they overtype at least one byte. We must look
like nut cases sometimes :)

One of its oddities was that if you typed a line and happened to have the
cursor before end of the line the right portion of the line was lost.
