Yes.  That is by design.

If you want to tweak, you should be able to use
minibuffer-setup-hook for that. I think Dmitry wants
to add some new variables to allow fido-mode
specific settings, but don't think that's a good idea.

That's not to say this shouldn't be easier, but I think adding
variables to fido-mode is not the way to go. Could end
up with fido-specific versions of every such variable. I prefer
to review the other variables, their values and semantics
so we come up with a holistic solution.  For Emacs 28.
