Ithink it's actually opposite:
The basic ( user extensible ) form of quoting is q[ ] or qq[ ] and so
on with the sintactic sugar of freedom to choose delimiters AND
special syntacric sugar for q//='' qq//="" qw//=<> ( and qx//=`` )

I think runtime/compile time is decided not by interpolating construct
but by the surrounding expression .
probably I can force interpolation at compile time by something
like
BEGIN{
my $line = "aaa" ;
my $a = "$line\n" ;
}
or
my $line ::= "aaa" ;
my $a ::= "$line\n" ;
by the way , what happens here ???
my $line = "aaa" ;
my $a ::= "$line\n" ;
in other words , what happens if the interpolation is forced at
compile time while not all variables inside are defined at compile
time ?
