It's very much intentional. Beginners often try to adjust their aim while down, usually with poor results. Instructors will universally teach you to aim while standing, and get up and reset if things don't feel right when you get down.

I've taken lessons with several instructors including a former world #1 player ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mika_Immonen). He would make me get up and try again if I made the tiniest aim adjustment when down.

The "aiming" state is in fact when you're standing.
