asksaveasfilename is just a wrapper around the tk_getSaveFile Tk command which is implemented differently on Windows, macOS and X Window. The used widgets have very different appearance and behavior on different platforms, so there is no chance to test macOS issues on Windows or Linux. On Linux at least it honoures initialdir='.'.

In any case Tkinter just converts arguments and results of the Tk command. It does not affect the appearance and behavior. We cannot do anything to fix bugs in Tk.
