Or maybe the bandpass filters have a really steep slope at the cuff off frequencies so this is negligible ?
The "stray" signal is mixed with the "real" signal in pixels so they both get stretched together by the same amount. There's no mechanism that stretches the extreme ends of the pass band more than the middle.
