Question about conjunctions @ @:

Studying voc on this, this is what I
understand from the examples:

   x */@+ y    <==>   */"0 x+y     A
 
   x */@:+ y   <==>   */"1 x+y     B

   */"0 x+ y
8 7 6 6

   */"1 x+ y
2016

First off, I know they are just examples to
illustrate things!

For ex B I can see the workings.
A gives me some trouble though: that is to say
on the face of it, it looks like 'times insert'
is superfluous, neglected or a dummy op?
In other words:
   x */@+ y    <==>   x+y

at least in this case.

What's really going on under the surface?


Thanks
