The VI mode should not use half open ranges when in visual mode. Vi(m) doesn't do it. It's just confusing. Currently when selecting a whole word, the cursor will end on the next character after the word, which will be highlighted but not selected, this is not a good user experience.

- open https://editor.bitwiser.in/
- select: kotlin and vim
- press: g g v i w
- press: d
The space after the word import although highlighted as part of the selection won't be deleted.
The same key sequence in vim does not highlight a character that is not selected: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1284d21b-c894-4163-bd29-e36e04c3c3f5
