This is a feature.  Note that the startup screen says "Type C-l to begin
editing your file."

See also the variable `inhibit-startup-message':

,----[ C-h v inhibit-startup-message RET ]
| inhibit-startup-message's value is nil
| 
| *Non-nil inhibits the initial startup message.
| This is for use in your personal init file, once you are familiar
| with the contents of the startup message.
| 
| You can customize this variable.

| Defined in `startup'.
