 > Yes, ...

 Great, so it works as documented. That's why we have `blank`.

 > ... but that seems counterintuitive

 We had this debate so many times, we cannot change the long standing
 behavior for an edge case of blank primary keys. TBH, I don't find it
 misleading that you have to set `blank=True` to allow for blank foreign
 keys.

 You can start a discussion on DevelopersMailingList if you don't agree,
 however, I don't think there would be consensus to change the current
 behavior.
