What's an "unquoted string". All strings in AppleScript are surrounded
by
quotes, including all those coming from 'do shell script'.
the fact the value above comes from a shell script doesn't make it a
different kind of string ... the surrounding quotes don't exist except
as a display and entry artifice.. the actual string value has no
surrounding quotes.. when writing about strings and giving examples,
it's usually best to use quotes, though
