Perhaps the confusion, as you call it, is because no where in the EMC2 documentation nor in the source code except in these two lines I identified, is the '=>' arrow mentioned. I don't really care that halcmd can manage to read in what it wrote out because of a cute trick in its parser. I care that the code conform to its documentation. Who knows, I might not be the only person to write my own code based on the documentation. But please yourself.
