It's because: ----------- | scratch | | | | | ----------- goes to : ------------------ | scratch | other | | | ------ | | cal | ------------------ where `other' is whatever other-buffer returns. It's not choosing messages specially, but obviously in emacs -Q there are no other buffers available. Then if you show the diary, it may happen to put it in the leftmost window, replacing scratch. AFAIK there are no general Emacs window-handling features to do any of this in any more sophisticated fashion.
