Can you explain more explicitly why you think this behavior is better?
For example, what is the point of annotating something if that
something is not visible?
Also, annotating texts are often placed outside of axes area. I don't
think clipping out the arrow is a good idea in this case.

Just in case, this is just a default behavior. You can override this
behavior without changing the mpl source code.
