From :help i_CTRL-\_CTRL-O

"""
The CTRL-O command sometimes has a side effect: If the cursor was beyond
the end of the line, it will be put on the last character in the line.
In mappings it's often better to use <Esc> (first put an "x" in the
text, <Esc> will then always put the cursor on it). Or use CTRL-\
CTRL-O, but then beware of the cursor possibly being beyond the end of
the line.
