AFAIU that's not strange, that's by design:
«The region to be filled, however, is defined by the pixels on the screen at the time of the fill.»

«Since the Paint Bucket Tool uses pixels to calculate the area to be enclosed, Inkscape will clip the region off-screen to prevent the number of pixels that go into the filling algorithm from becoming too large.»
