LogLogPlot evaluates argument outside given range

Why does LogLogPlot evaluate its argument outside the given range?

Example:

LogLogPlot[
  Interpolation[Table[10^{i, i}, {i, 1, 5}]][x] // Evaluate, {x, 10,
   100000}]

InterpolatingFunction::dmval: Input value {2.30277} lies outside the 
range of data in the interpolating function. Extrapolation will be used.

This is bad, even if intentional, because the function passed to plot 
might be written with the assumption that it will never receive 
arguments outside certain bounds.
