Yes, I totally agree.  Fortunately, that's what the code does.

No, there's no need to do that.  What you're missing is that the default
is "" when they specified --backup-dir, so the code only sends the
suffix if it is not a null string in that case.  If they specified
--suffix=~, it gets sent when --backup-dir was specified.  (We don't
send '~' only when --backup-dir was _not_ specified.)
