Wouldn't that be equivalent to
for $a in expr1, $b in expr2, $c in expr3[$a = $b + .]
return $a

I can see no difference off hand when creating 1-tuples, as a 1-tuple is
essentially just a sequence.
However, when creating n-tuples (either with the "at" keyword as you say or
with other bound variables in your expression), the where clause acts on the
tuple, not just on a set of values. Here is a 3-tuple expression example:
for $a in expr1, $b in expr2, $c in expr3
where $a=$b+$c
return $a
I hope this is helpful.
