No, PWS is claiming that[1]. As he is the lead developer of Zsh,
I would tend to trust him on this.
As he points out, aliases are intended for interactive use, not
for batch or compilation context.

So even though I agree that it's not expected behaviour, I don't
think anything can be done about this. If you want to, re-open
the bug, but unless you revive and argue the point upstream,
it will be a stale report.

even before being aware of this issue.
