It is intentional yes. Tooltips these days function as giving additional information that wouldn't be obvious by itself.

For example: When hovering over a title element that allows a double-click-to-edit functionality, it is something a lot of people won't guess. There needs at least some visual to show up that indicates at the possibility of this feature. One could show a small pencil next to the text as a visual cue. I personally enjoy a "double click to edit" tooltip to indicate this, because it's easier to implement and doesn't move the element itself in size, as opposed to showing an icon next to it, which will grow the element and shift all the elements around it, which isn't satisfying to look at.

The icons you are pointing to in the canvas are intentionally left without any tooltips, as these are common meanings for people these days. We all know these three icons represent help, export and info respectively. I can agree the second one can also be upload, but once you click on it, it's quite obvious it's an export tool. There's no extra hidden information here that people need that can't be inferred otherwise, therefore, there is no need to add tooltips here.

Thanks for bringing it up anyways, always appreciated!
