That's because specifying a file explicitly says that you only want to
look at that file, specifying two files that you want the range
inclusively between the two files. -f works if you just use -s.

I'd say it's working as intended, and you want to change that
intent. That's fair, but I'd not call it a bug, and I'd say it's not
really 9.6 material.

Other than that it looks reasonable from a quick glance.
