That is the behavior I expect intuitively (which doesn't
mean much, I admit.)
Given your scenario:
# mkdir aa
# cd aa
there is a difference in the results between these next two:
# rmdir .*
# rm -r .*
The first removes aa, the second refuses to remove it.
I don't know if they should behave differently or not.
Does it matter?
