The Big5 encoder and decoder are asymmetric (like the EUC-JP encoder and decoder). The visualizations visualize what can be decoded. The spec excludes part of the decoding space from round-tripping via the encoder in order for HTML form submission not to generate extension-range bytes that some server-side recipients may not support.
For EUC-JP, the asymmetry is based on historical experience. For Big5, it is by prudent analogy of the problem initially seen with EUC-JP. Also, for Big5, the exclusion for Big5 is questionable and possibly by accident excluding less than what was intended: The encoder only excludes the extension part below the original Big5 range but doesn't exclude the other extension part above the original Big5 range.

Well, probably that information should be included somewhere in the spec, probably here
