date_select’s :discard_month and :discard_day choose different default days
Reported by Edward Ocampo-Gooding | March 17th, 2011 @ 04:29 AM
When setting :discard_day as an option in the
date_select view helper, the default day chosen is the
first of the month.
However, when setting :discard_month, and it
implicitly sets :discard_day, the default day chosen
is the current day instead of the first of the month.
Which behaviour is correct? Either way, that feels like a bug.

When using discard_day, the day chosen is the first day of the month to avoid things like 31/02/2011.

Diego: right, except that when :discard_month implicitly sets :discard_day, the first day of the month is not chosen.

Edward, it is not a bug. It is how it is designed: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_vi...
Yes, maybe it looks strange a bit, but I don't think that it is a good idea to change it now.
