No, that's a bug. (A serious enough bug that I figure we need to consider a
swift update release)) We shouldn't insist on a CA cert bundle to be present.
You can work around the bug by applying this patch:

--- a/src/tool_doswin.c
+++ b/src/tool_doswin.c
@@ -285,8 +285,6 @@ CURLcode FindWin32CACert(struct Configurable *config,
const
        if(!config->cacert)
          result = CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY;
      }
- else
- result = CURLE_SSL_CACERT;

      Curl_safefree(buf);
    }
