At least for renewals, it does parse Apache config — I was unpleasantly surprised by that last week

My best guess is that you have previously issued a certificate using the apache plugin on that system, and the renewal config file for that certificate is still there.

  $ echo "BreakThisConfig" > /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
  $ ./certbot-auto --apache
  2016-05-16 21:33:31,252:ERROR:certbot.le_util:Error while running apache2ctl configtest.
  Action 'configtest' failed.
  The Apache error log may have more information.
  $ ./certbot-auto certonly --standalone -d example.com
  - Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem.
  $ ./certbot-auto renew --force-renewal
  Congratulations, all renewals succeeded. The following certs have been renewed:
  /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem (success)
