Negative values on LineThickness for a SelectionBox allowed?

Bug Reports Engine Bugs
#1

Intro

I expected negative values for LineThickness to not be allowed; however, it appears they are tolerated for whatever reason. Negative values behave very strangely and I’m not sure if it was intentionally designed to be this way.
Apparently, setting the LineThickness to: -(0.1)n, where n is a positive integer, it appears that
the selectionbox renders at roughly: 150n studs away from the camera.

This is not limited to the studio camera, the same effects are shown in a live game.

Repro

1. Insert part with a SelectionBox
2. Set Adornee to said part
3. Set LineThickness to -0.1
4. Move the camera roughly 150 studs away (or more), and the selectionbox will render

These steps reproduce the issue 100% of the time, regardless of the place of time of reproduction.
