As others have pointed out, it is a carryover from the the HP-38G paradigm. A feature that is, supposedly, beneficial to educators as it simplifies use of variables. I can understand the benefit for special object types like matrices, lists and complex numbers. But why tie up the most valuable names by forcing them to be real?

I know what it is not. It is definitely not a pipe!

Code:

 ___
(__ `-._                _____
   `-._ `-._          .'     `.
       `-._ `-._     .=========.
           `._ /`-..-          .
              `-._             .
                  `-.._______.'

Ceci n'est pas une signature.
