MySQL/MariaDB stored procedure inserts even with syntax error

Question

createdAt has not been defined, but the query still runs when I call this proc and inserts a "0" date. Why, shouldn't it fail?

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `User_Signup` $$

CREATE DEFINER = `root` @`localhost` PROCEDURE `User_Signup` (
  email VARCHAR (250),

  gender ENUM ('Male', 'Female'),
