I'm not so sure. I think the whole idea of having both stemmers is that the minimal one does less than the light one.
Removing the final character of a double letter suffix is going to sacrifice some precision. For example mes/mess, ne/née, I'm sure there are others. So having both options is helpful, I don't think it's a bug on the face of it. However I didn't look closely at the code, so I'm not sure what the intent is exactly.
