Unneeded quoting. I only use quotes where necessary. Some people have had
problems in the past with using quotes the wrong way so it's just better
not to use them. Only times you need them is like on command line stuff
where you use '${if ...}' that has a space and the options are broken up
before expansion.

Or atleast that's the way I understood it =)
