The docstring of async-shell-command tells

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
That buffer is in major mode specified by the variable
‘async-shell-command-mode’.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This is different to  start-process-shell-command. So yes, it is
intentional I believe.
