For the same reason you can do
put 17 into B
but cannot do
put 17 into (B)
(My over-simplified way of thinking of it is ..
B is a container - you can put values into it or take them out.
(B) is just a value - you can only take it out.
Similarly,
line XOUNT of fld "f" is a textchunk - you can set its textcolor
but (line Xount of fld "F") is just a value
