It is on purpose. An @-command delimitates a special value on the @def*
line, in the same way as braces do (except when in the ARGUMENTS... part),
so @t{A} is an argument, and then it gets its space. The manual says:
As a general rule, when any of the arguments in the heading line
_except_ the last one are more than one word, you need to enclose them
in braces. This may also be necessary if the text contains commands,
for example, '{declaraci@'on}' if you are writing in Spanish.
Which means, in my opinion, that you should have put braces.
That being said, it is not specified in the manual that a braced command
delimitates a value on a @def* line, so this could also be changed.
