We must be using differen products or at least different settings. I
don't have a Wacom tablet. I simply use a mouse. Unless the hardness
of the clone tool is at 100% the area cloned from and to exceeds the
diameter of the tool. I just did it again to be sure I was correct.
When at 100% the tool makes a hard edged circle at exactly the tool
diameter. But, at less than 100% it starts overflowing the brush
diameter. It seems to be telling me that a soft brush is a mushy brush.
I tested it by cloning the bridge of a ship to the clear blue sky area.
I set the brush diameter to exactly the width of the bridge. But
there were other non-sky (darker) areas outside the brush diameter.
When choosing the source for the clone I chose the bridge. The cloned
area clearly exceeds the diameter of the brush as it leaves gray areas
on the blue sky beyond the brush diameter.

I don't believe that I have ever seen the clone stamp tool go beyond the
confines of the outer circle. Inside the outer circle, it depends on
the hardness setting and the particular brush that is selected. It can
be controlled by using a Wacom tablet and pressure dynamics.

But something I always forget... unless you have the hardness level set
at 100% the clone stamp feels no guilt in not honoring the confines of
the brush circle. That's an area where PW Pro is easier to use.
Regardless of brush hardness the outer diameter of the brush circle is
the outer diameter of the effect. You can always tell exactly where the
paint is going to go... not so with Photoshop. Or if there's a setting
to control that in PS I'm not aware of it.
