Under ":help quote:" it is expicitly said that @: should repeat the
latest ex-command.
You can also use any of
":p
":P
:put:
:reg:
to see what is there. Of course, if it were empty it would be a no-op.
But here, even after using : as the ex-command the register doesn't
become empty, and since it's a read-only register you couldn't do
:let @: = ""
