No, it's not illogical.

'svn commit' != 'svn commit *'
'svn commit' == 'svn commit . -R'

In other words, the commit command is recursive by default. If you give
no targets, it runs on '.', and it runs recursively, which means it
hunts down all local changes.

To accomplish what you want, specify the exact list of files to commit.
Or put them into a file, and use --targets.
