As an additional point of comparison, the form `(if)' causes a warning
(but not an error) during byte-compilation.
bad-if.el:3:1:Warning: too few arguments for ‘if’
I checked its behavior since `funcall' is a function whereas `setq' is a
special form, so I was interested to see if the precedent there was
different.
