DESI aims to provide one of the tightest constraints on cosmological parameters by analyzing the clustering of more than thirty million galaxies. However, obtaining such constraints requires special care in validating the analysis methods, and efforts to reduce the computational time required through techniques such as data compression and emulation. In this work, we perform a precision validation of the PyBird power spectrum modelling code with both a traditional, but emulated, Full-Modelling approach and the model-independent Shapefit compression approach. Using cubic simulations, which accurately reproduce the clustering and precision of the DESI survey, we find that the cosmological constraints from Shapefit and Full-Modelling are consistent with each other at the $\sim0.3\sigma$ level. Both Shapefit and Full-Modelling are also consistent with the true $\Lambda$CDM simulation cosmology, even when including the hexadecapole, down to a scale $k_{\mathrm{max}} = 0.20 h \mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$. For extended models such as the $w$CDM and the $o$CDM models, we find including the hexadecapole can significantly improve the constraints and reduce the systematic errors with the same $k_{\mathrm{max}}$. Furthermore, we also show that the constraints on cosmological parameters with the correlation function evaluated from PyBird down to $s_{\mathrm{min}} = 30 h^{-1} \mathrm{Mpc}$ are unbiased, and consistent with the constraints from the power spectrum.
