Why is the range of dual_vertices [-0.5, 1.5] rather than [0, 1]?

Description

https://github.com/microsoft/TRELLIS.2/blob/903bfcf51af09b3fc6c408d2c7f2335febab7f81/trellis2/models/sc_vaes/fdg_vae.py#L100
This is a bit confusing to me. Considering that the calculation of mesh_vertices is as follows:
https://github.com/microsoft/TRELLIS.2/blob/903bfcf51af09b3fc6c408d2c7f2335febab7f81/o-voxel/o_voxel/convert/flexible_dual_grid.py#L268
According to the o-voxel encoding (dual_vertices = dual_vertices * RES - voxel_indices), intuitively dual_vertices should lie in [0, 1]. Could it be that in practice dual_vertices exceed [0, 1], landing in half of a neighboring voxel?

Research direction

Read trellis2/models/sc_vaes/fdg_vae.py around line 100 and o-voxel/o_voxel/convert/flexible_dual_grid.py around line 268. Trace the dual_vertices encoding and mesh_vertices calculation to determine whether values outside [0, 1] are expected. Done means providing a clear explanation of the [-0.5, 1.5] range and documenting the relevant behavior if needed.
