    I will always write ${x}_$y.z instead of ${x}_${y}.z:

    The difference between the two seems different to what’s in the OP. Is there a typo here?

      in the OP

      My reply is to a commenter who said they prefer "${HOME}/docs" over both options in the original image ("$HOME/docs" or "$HOME"/docs). Many people prefer to always include braces around the parameter name out of consistency, instead of only when they are required.

      My comment explained why my habit is to only include braces when they are necessary.
