The reason is that the text may be too long to output when focusing. The text is output when navigating through the field. So this is not an error. However, it would be a useful feature request that the text is output up to a certain length and a reference to the text is only made for long text or that the first approx. 80 characters are always output and a reference to further characters is made for longer text.
