Default Range missing its target area weirdly

I have tried two different approaches to do the same
thing, i.e. flipping the bold format.

Approach #1
Set rSel = Selection
rSel.Cells(1, 1).Font.Bold = Not rSel.Cells(1, 1).Font.Bold

Approach #2
Set rSel = Selection
rSel.Range(rSel.Cells(1, 1), rSel.Cells(1, 1)).Font.Bold = _
Not rSel.Range(rSel.Cells(1, 1), rSel.Cells(1, 1)).Font.Bold

Now, i'd say they are equivalent. However, what happens
makes me a little bit confused. When my selection starts
from A1, both approaches work in exactly the same way.
As soon as i start my selection from, say, B2, i get the
following difference.
Approach #1
The top, leftmost element of the selection (here it's B2)
gets changed, as expected to.
Approach #2
The _second_ top, leftmost element of the selection (here
it's C3) gets changed, to my astonishment.

It wouldn't surprise me if it was a matter of defnition of
Range but as far as i can read the docs, there's nothing in
there regarding this behavior. Any comments?
