It is mandated by the mapping, see p118 (or 5-26) of the 1.2 revision

generic
     ...
package CORBA.Sequences.Unbounded is
     subtype Index_Range is Index_Type
         range 1 .. Index_Type'Last;
     subtype Length_Range is Index_Type'BASE
         range 0 .. Index_Type'Last;
     Null_Element_Array : Element_Array(1..0);
     type Sequence is private;
