You hallucinated a dash in front of the bustrac.  psql bustract is a
perfectly valid psql command.  User gets inferred from the OS user.

As in?:

psql -d test -U postgres  bustrac
psql: warning: extra command-line argument "bustrac" ignored
psql (16.3 (Ubuntu 16.3-1.pgdg22.04+1), server 15.7 (Ubuntu 
15.7-1.pgdg22.04+1))
Type "help" for help.

test=#

In which case bustrac is ignored.

Well no, that is the specification of -U is the exact opposite of "user
gets inferred from the OS user".

psql: warning: extra command-line argument "bustrac" ignored

You are missing the fact that bustrac is the name of the database so when
you specify the -d option you are being redundant and being told that by
psql.

psql [option...] [dbname [username]]

You like to specify both dbname and username via options but as shown one
can also use arguments.
