? was still handy because on the C64 there was a 2 screen line max when entering a program line. So you could get a longer line in by using
10 ?"hello whatever..."
which would be expanded to
10 PRINT "hello whatever..."
Line numbers counted too, IIRC, so it was more important when you had 4 and 5 digit line numbers.
But it's been 25 years since I did any commodore basic - my memory might be a bit wrong on this...
