Yes, you are correct. emacs -q is an equivalent to the empty init file.
And what you get with emacs -q is also expected - the default window placement.

There is no bug in what you have shown - Org mode uses its defaults (we
need to have some).

I am trying to figure out your report that Org mode does not respect
`display-buffer-alist'. Org mode, since Org 9.7, should respect user
customization in `display-buffer-alist'.

What I want from you is sufficient information for me to replicate the
problem you are seeing on my computer. Without such information, I
simply cannot diagnose the problem.

The usual way to produce such information is providing detailed steps,
starting from emacs -Q, that demonstrate the problem.

In your case, it is probably something like
1. emacs -Q
2. Evaluate (setq display-buffer-alist ...)
3. Run M-x org-capture ...
4. Observe display-buffer-alist not being respected

May you please provide such information for me?
