Is this expected, or a bug?
You are right, this is a bug. Compatibility with past server versions should be preserved, and we made an effort to do so in the past (see the switch to pg_wal/ for example). Fortunately, maintaining the compatibility is simple enough as the connection information is close by so that we just need to change postgresql.auto.conf to recovery.conf, and avoid the creation of standby.signal. -- Michael
