Something is indeed messed up in your execution environment.

Let's try killing an interactive shell sitting in readline() from another
terminal:

$ echo $BASH_VERSION
5.2.37(6)-release
$ trap
$ echo $$
30762
User defined signal 1: 30

[shell terminates]

Now let's try killing an interactive shell that's not sitting in readline()
with the same fatal signal:

$ echo $BASH_VERSION
5.2.37(6)-release
$ trap
$ kill -USR1 $$
User defined signal 1: 30

[shell terminates].
