Comment (by John Gooding):
I never said it wasn't a documented behavior. I said the behavior isn't
consistent. I think saying it depends on arguments and not on where its
run, is completely pointless. They are one and the same, the argument is
the position. My point is the behavior can be improved, not that it is
broken, and I believe it warrants further discussion on that.

is run, it depends on arguments and this is a
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/django-admin/#startapp
documented] behavior:

> - `python ../manage.py startapp polls` - creates a Django app directory
structure in the current directory.
> - `python manage.py startapp polls project` - creates a Django app
directory structure in the existing directory `project`, because you
provided an optional `destination`, see:

> > "If the optional destination is provided, Django will use that
existing directory rather than creating a new one."
