In EBCDIC, ‘Z’ > ‘A’, so the range 'A' ... 'Z' is valid, but may not do what the programmer intended.
Most other languages never supported EBCDIC or dropped it long ago.
(Also: 'A' ... 'Z' may not do what the programmer intended in most other languages, too. Even ignoring Unicode, quite a few encodings have accented letters that are outside of that range)
