I'd say that it's both.
More specifically, though, it's not explicitly covered by the
specifications, or rather it's my interpretation of the
specifications.
That said, it's not likely to be compatible with the golf
implementation, and this task has "emulate golf" written all over it.
(And if this were a real task, I'd be concerned about the need to
quote the argument.)
Here's another one to try:
(1j1#"1&|:(25{.(a.{~,2#65 97+/i.26)(>:@i.}.[){.)"0) 'Hello, world!'
And note also that the outer parenthesis are unnecessary.
