Most start with the throttle locked on and choke up, but that’s why they have a blade brake.

I haven't seen one where it starts with the throttle on as in it would be moving the chain without the lock. I've had to do it manually on one though when it didn't want to start otherwise.

It's normal for a cold start, I haven't seen a chainsaw which didn't want at least some throttle to start from cold (old saws might not have the choke/throttle interlock for this but you use your boot to keep it on). Even the pre chain brake saws I've used have been like this - you just have to be aware of where you put the saw when starting it.

Hot starts are another matter as they should fire up nicely on idle once warm.
