Because the $xyz$ things are (by convention) functions, not scalars.
(define ($object-titles-after$) (list (...) (...) ...))
is equivalent to
(define $object-titles-after$)
(lambda () (list (...) (...) ...)))
This would presumably allow you to give these parameters context-dependent
values in some way.
