Thanks for providing the details! I have also found the relevant thread.
It was not immediately visible because of my MUA settings.

I cannot say that I like calling org-agenda functions, but I cannot
propose anything better either (agenda code sucks...).

Ideally, we should factor out the duration calculation from the depths
of the agenda code into a separate function and then use it. But I am
not even sure if this calculation is always same in different agenda
types...

For the code, it will err when the time range is located inside the
headline and org-agenda-search-headline-for-time is set to non-nil
(which it is, by default)

Best,
