Follow-up Comment #3, bug #51999 (project octave):

Still in the manual Section 8.5.2 I read: 

MATLAB has special behavior that allows the operators ‘&’ and ‘|’ to
short-circuit when used in the truth expression for if and while statements.
Octave also behaves the same way by default, though the use of the ‘&’ and
‘|’ operators in this way is strongly discouraged. Instead, you should use
the ‘&&’ and ‘||’ operators that always have short-circuit behavior. 

I think, 'by default' is deprecated: this is always the case.
