We cannot "exit early" from the entire line, because there is more following the && operation.
It may make sense if you realize that
0 && 1 = 0
is the same as:
(0 && 1) = 0
We don't have to check the right side of the && before resolving the parenthetical expression, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't continue evaluating the rest of the line.
Any advice on debugging a connection error? Do any web server configurations need to be made?
I do not see this behavior on my instance.

What is the value of $ascii("♥") for you? Are you executing this from an IRIS terminal?
It's interesting that this behaves differently in the Studio output window, but since Studio is deprecated I wouldn't expect anything to come of reporting this. And hopefully this doesn't affect your use-case; you were just trying to test something from within Studio, right?
