Before, it kept the old position, cut down to fit the shorter text. A delete over an empty range is skipped, except a backward delete when there is text.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis keeps the cursor where you would expect after deleting lines in the prompt.\n\n- Area: Prompt Input\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
