It's consistent, but you're confused because you think that the cursor indicates a character rather than a position *between* two characters. If you customize `cursor-⁠type' to the Vertical Bar option you will have a more literal view of the cursor, and see what `show-⁠paren-⁠mode' is actually doing. -⁠Phil
