The example seems pretty weird. If it's just data there shouldn't be any quotes at all. The only purpose of quoting is to prevent evaluation, so I guess the idea must be that `log` is a function call to be evaluated, but then the example isn't even the same thing as the XML version (and there are still nested quotes inside the already quoted record).
