That's because /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg has:
! model         layout          variant         =       symbols
  *             ro              de              =       pc+ro(winkeys)
  *             ro              us              =       pc+ro(std_comma)
  *             ro              std             =       pc+ro(std_cedilla)
  *             ro              academic                =       pc+ro(std_comma)

So layout ro and variant std is mapped to symbols pc+ro(std_cedilla).
