Except for the large exception noted below, Script Debugger doesn't deal
with such things. It passes the text of the script to the AppleScript
component to be compiled, then gets back the text of the decompiled script
from the AppleScript component for display. Just like most other
traditional script editors. (And just the way it behaves when working with
some other OSA language.)

The large exception being that when doing debug compiles, SD tosses in lots
of extra commands, and hides them when it displays what it gets back from
the AppleScript component. Even here, I wouldn't expect SD to mess with the
user's part of what AppleScript hands back to it.
