For bare words to be interpreted as strings, they must begin with a
lowercase letter. There are other restrictions
<https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_datatypes.html#bare-words>,
too. Yes, it's a bit weird -- in fact, I wasn't mindful of the initial
letter rule in this context until I looked into this matter, though I am
well aware of the flip side, that resource references must begin with
capital letters.
Bottom line: it's good practice to quote your strings.
