It's not avoided -- $: represents the entire tacit verb (named 'u' in this context). What's avoided is $: representing the ,@cut verb. In this particular case, that would not be a fatal problem, but in other examples avoiding this issue would be important. Try <1 :'u@cut' 'a b c' and compare with <1 :'u@(cut f.) f.' 'a b c' for a small example of this correctness issue.
