This means if \1 is "fish" and you use a SET command like $SET(\2=\1 food), the \2 will not become "fish food" but will be literally set to "\1 food". However this will be expanded to "fish food" when \2 is printed in the replacement section.

This thread as well as mentioned "Techniques.txt" document is about undocumented "nuances" (as Mona labeled them). "undocumented" means "not part of the official documentation".

Each statement in Techniques.txt is followed by examples, allowing you to verify it.
