The @variable business works any time you would normally have a number 
or string in a command OUTSIDE of an atom expression. In just about 
every command this means no @ in an {atomExpression} context.

Since SELECT, HIDE, DISPLAY, and RESTRICT implicitly add { } around the 
entire set of parameters, you can't use @ in those commands.

That's pretty much it.

If nature does not answer first what we want,
it is better to take what answer we get.
