Comment:
This appears to be a usage mistake. You need to use a custom manager with
your user model that defines
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/auth/customizing/#django.contrib.auth.models.CustomUserManager.create_superuser
create_superuser()] with appropriate parameters (corresponding to your
`USERNAME_FIELD`.
For an example of how this works, you can look at Django's
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/32b7ffc2bbfd1ae055bdbe287f8598de731adce1/tests/auth_tests/test_management.py#L335
test] for `createsuperuser` which uses
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/32b7ffc2bbfd1ae055bdbe287f8598de731adce1/tests/auth_tests/models/custom_user.py
a custom user] that defines `REQUIRED_FIELDS`.
