Have you read ':h :let-@'?
If the result of {expr1} ends in a <CR> or <NL>, the register will
be linewise, otherwise it will be set to characterwise.
So what you're seeing is an artefact of registers serving two purposes,
namely storage for replayable keystrokes and storage for arbitrary text
strings. Try ':registers' to see what's actually inside the register.
Best,
