I would have to dig around, but I am pretty sure there were explicit statements
that `@` would neither be bound by the behavior of `dot` nor expected to be
reconciled with it.

I agree that where `@` and `dot` differ in behavior, this should be clearly 
documented.
I would hope that the behavior of `dot` would not change.
