TextEdit, is it really that lame?

I almost never use TextEdit for anything (abundance of better text editors), but I have a need to do something with it this week. I note that running the following

tell application "TextEdit"
tell document 1
make new paragraph at end of paragraphs with data "Hello World"
end tell
end tell

doesn't make a new paragraph. Repeated runs just stack words into the first paragraph. It appears that the only way to get a new paragraph in a TextEdit document is to put in a slug of text with a return in it. Is this thing really that lame?
