I just checked the latest and last hardcopy ASLG printed [Apple Developer
Connection, 1999, sold through fatbrain.com, covering AppleScipt v1.3.7].

On page 143, it says "...the Get command is optional because AppleScript
automatically gets the value of expressions and references when they appear
in scripts."

So nine years ago, it was still not required.
