Follow-up Comment #1, bug #61019 (project groff):

  This is the result of a bad programming practice;

  macros are not initialised before they are used.

  The message:

troff: EXPERIMENTS/pic.me:2: warning: macro '&&' not defined

  is the clue.

  '&&' is here used as a "terminating macro" (when '..' can't be used),
 thus it must exist when it is encountered.

  Defining it as empty is enough,
 or one could put a diagnostic message in it.
