I think it would be called an oversight, but the if and setup_proc are configured to be immediate execution commands. This means if they are entered interactively, they will execute immediately even if there is a time block on the operator command stream. This is not an issue for the schedule stream, which doesn't have the functionality of immediate execution commands. So it is benign in schedules.

These commands should probably be changed to be "normal" commands, but maybe there should be some reflection on whether that might cut-off some desired functionality.

I would note in passing that the break command has been disabled and that contrary to the intended design, it is possible to force immediate execution of a procedure (proc@!) during a time block. Will think about fixing those.
