As described in the POSIX document you referenced $@ is a special case when
it's within double quotes (in certain defined circumstances). Unlike other
quoted expansions it normally *doesn't* expand to a single string.
The bash documentation says of this case:
That is, "$@" is equivalent to "$1" "$2" ...
