I had always thought of --display and $DISPLAY as fulfilling the same
function, setting the name of your X server, rather than an
instruction to perform an action (open a window when you otherwise
wouldn't). The other behaviour of emacs is consistent with this
interpretation:
emacs -nw --display $DISPLAY (opens in tty)
emacsclient -t --display $DISPLAY (opens in tty)
