That standard is just wrong, dotfiles belong in $HOME :)  I'm only half joking, 
having grown up with Unix and having had the experience of flailing around for 
a while before I figured out a particular program's rc file was in .config 
instead of where I expected it to be, but I *am* half joking, because putting 
them all in .config is convenient. But most programs don't, so also looking in 
~ makes sense to me.
