Confirmed.

Nope. It is because the total length of the timestamp changes.
`org-clock-timestamps-change' records buffer positions before changing
the timestamps and when the timestamp changes in length, positions may
no longer be accurate. In your reproducer, begts2 points one char before
the actual timestamp upon modification and thus the logic fails.

Note that we cannot use markers here because `org-timestamp-up'/down use
`replace-match' that shuffles the markers around. (see FIXME in
`org-timestamp-change').
