I'm assuming it doesn't compile down to a proper AST, does it?

No, it doesn't get compiled at all. You can't sensibly syntax-check the script before runtime because you could legitimately do something like:

  #!ipxe
  read command
  ${command} some arguments

in which the command to be executed cannot be known in advance.
