Why is wlan enabled after I have used the wifi hotspot allthough I had only 3g connection on?

I normally use only 3G data-connection and for some reason if I use the Wifi hotspot, then switch it off, the phone immidiately connects to my Wlan which I didn't have enabled, before using the hotspot. I think this is a bug because I can't think of a reason why the phone should work like this.

I've read elsewhere on this site one other also seeing this happening. Anyone else?

EDIT: I got the feeling that I should add that this strange hotspot behaviour also causes severe battery drain for me. Battery drain discussed HERE For me the battery looses about 40% power overnight if I have used the Wifi Hotspot. (switched it off, of course, along with the wlan-connection that was enabled) A simple reboot though fixes everything and I'm back to normal 4-5% power consumption over night.
