Flight mode PWM ranges

Can anyone tell me where the PWM ranges are defined for each flight mode?  Is there a reason why the PWM range for Flight Mode 1 is so large?

    control_modes.pde:

    static byte readSwitch(void){
    int pulsewidth = g.rc_5.radio_in; // default for Arducopter

    if (pulsewidth > 1230 && pulsewidth <= 1360) return 1;
    if (pulsewidth > 1360 && pulsewidth <= 1490) return 2;
    if (pulsewidth > 1490 && pulsewidth <= 1620) return 3;
    if (pulsewidth > 1620 && pulsewidth <= 1749) return 4; // Software Manual
    if (pulsewidth >= 1750) return 5; // Hardware Manual
    return 0;
    }

    I don't think it really matters how large they are. Just that you adjust your radio to send the right pwms.
