Chdiza wasn't lecturing. Like Fritzophrenic said, Vim has a very strong tradition of backwards compatibility, and the t and T commands have a long tradition of moving the cursor just "one short" of the corresponding f or F command. For instance, dt. deletes everything up to, but not including, the next full stop. Similarly vt, (set character-visual mode up to but not including the next comma) etc. I use it less often, maybe, than Fritzophrenic, but still quite often; changing it to mean "one more than the corresponding f or F" would leave me quite distressed: I would go as far as calling it a regression bug of major severity in category "unusable-ui, dogfood" and an off-by-two error.
