By looking at the HTML we can see that there is content on the page which is styled as display:none, so as not to be visible to a reader. Here is an example element from that page:
<span class="tag-json" style="display:none">{"type":"entrez-nucleotide","attrs":{"text":"JX501334","term_id":"961791677","term_text":"JX501334"}}</span>JX501334</a>
However, when this text is selected for annotation Hypothesis shows all the content selected, regardless of its styled visibility.
This is unexpected to a user, and can be confusing or appear that there is something wrong.
