I don't see a bug here. In the POSIX world, CR is just another character and 'paste' is required to paste it like it would paste any other character.
As you mentioned, a simple way to fix it is to remove the CRs first, e.g., with the command "tr -d '\r'". In Bash:
paste <(tr -d '\r' letters.txt) <(tr -d '\r' numbers.txt)
