I keep seeing this syntax used a bit and i'm stumped to what it

It's a token string though, not a delimited string. See the
section "Token Strings" on that page.
What are they used for? Simpler for creating code at compile time?
It allows IDE syntax highlighting and code completion to work with

You don't have to use it, in fact there's no difference between this and
a normal string.
It's just nicer.
