I now see there are several levels of mu stupidity. You are absolutely
correct your syntax works and I was too confused to see it.
Hey! We're good at stupid questions. I ask them a lot. My current favourite is "Has anyone seen my keys?", to which the answer is "no" on account of me holding them in my hand.
I think you were just being confused -- temporary programming language overload.
Actually, people learn a lot from apparent stupidity -- like the keys, it's usually a question of something obvious staring them in the face and being invisible, from which (except for the keys) comes a better undersanding. Hopefully someone learned from the thread that there is a useful alternative to backticks. There, now, isn't that deep for a Tuesday morning?
