Sorry, it does not:
testpos@srap53dxr1:~> psql --help -Usisis | grep DBNAME psql [OPTION]... [DBNAME [USERNAME]] -d, --dbname=DBNAME database name to connect to (default: "testpos")
This wasn't in your first examples. I agree it's misleading. I guess this happens because psql has no idea which database it will connect to in the end. It isn't its call, but libpq's.
