Because composition string is un-committed string. It seems that the "correct" behavior depends on the semantics. Say I have typed a text "你好", then I decided to add 们 between 你 and 好 so I put the caret / insertion point between the two and start typing "men" on IME. At this point website randomly replaces the entire value by "Hello". In that case, as a user, I wouldn't expect to have my uncommitted string "men" after "Hello" because semantically speaking, my greeting message in Chinese has entirely been replaced by one in English. There's no point in adding "men" at this point. On the other hand, if I had just typed "你" and website replaced the value by "你们" as I typed "hao" on IME, then having the uncommitted text after "你们" makes sense and I'd like to keep the text because then I can just commit my text to obtain "你们好". - Ryosuke
