Steps to reproduce:

1. Start selection with a post which is a reply to another.
2. Click the “select + replies” button for its parent.
3. Note that although there are only two posts selected, the counter says `(3)`.

It’s not a major issue, but it can be a slight cause for concern – it becomes a bit ambiguous whether there’s another post that’s selected but not visible.
