What's the magic behind it? Since confirmation=0 is default, I would expect a return value of 0.00025.

user5406: getbalance returns the balance that your node currently considers spendable. According to your console output, the transaction that sent you the output was flagged as "bip125-replaceable"=>"yes". Since a transaction flagged as replaceable can be amended or retracted by the sender until it gets confirmed, an output from such a transaction will not be considered reliable and not used as an input until confirmed.
