On computers, why is the mouse constrained in the left and top borders of the screen, but can go past the bottom and right border of the screen?

The icon of the mouse pointer clicks on whatever is at the upper left point of the icon. If you’re trying to click on something on the far right side of the screen, or on the bottom of the screen, most of the icon has to disappear off of the screen in order for you to click those things.
Depending on your monitor you can usually see the left edge of the mouse pointer when you’re on the far right side of the screen, but you can’t see the top because it’s just a single point.
