Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

The decimal module strives to exactly follow the spec even when our 
sensibilities suggest otherwise. Perhaps, we can add a note to the current docs 
describing the situation.  The API itself is a settled issue, that ship sailed 
a very long time ago (the problem with a standard library is that it becomes 
standard that people rely on and is hard to change after the fact without 
causing issues for users).
