rsync's manual does not specify its usage. However, examples are provided in

example:
rsync -t *.c foo:src/
This would transfer all files matching the pattern *.c from the current
directory to the directory src on the machine foo. If any of the files already
exist on the remote system then the rsync remote-update protocol is used to
update the file by sending only the differences. See the tech report for
details.
In fact, only the files matching the pattern and with the right type are
copied. I do not know which types are copied by default, but I know that
directories are not. If
A directory is NOT a file. Hence the example is correct.
Closing this report.

A directory IS a file. You might want to see the report upstream.
