Yes, a construction involving either << or < is needed to use any variable.

The parameter name wrapped in double underscores is a valid variable name in 
its own right. When used in a filter it wouldn't have the double angle brackets:

<<link-links "[tag<__tagname__>!sort[modified]]">>

To put it another way: macro parameters are made available within the body of a 
macro as variables named with the parameter name wrapped in double underscores.
