man regex:

'^' (matching the null string at the beginning of a line), '$' (matching the null string at the end of a line),
Above means: a line feed at the begin-of-line or at end-of-line will be removed. You have to know that in sed, the line end is implicitly known, no <LF> in pattern space. Thus a really existing "extra" <LF> would mean an empty line and needs to be removed.
