Maybe not, but it's info.el which does that, not Texinfo.  From the
Texinfo POV the result is perfectly correct, and provides a better
location to an Info reader (although ISTR the Emacs reader disregards
that).

IOW, the way info.el displays this is not a reason to avoid the 2nd
argument of a cross-reference.  If we think the display is wrong, we
should fix info.el to yield a better one.
