It doesn't?
As in /usr/src/usr.bin/tar/bsdtar.1, rev 1.20.2.2:
.It Fl C Ar directory
In c and r mode, this changes the directory before adding
the following files.
In x mode, change directories after opening the archive
but before extracting entries from the archive.

Unix is user friendly. However, it isn't idiot friendly.
