I never saw the "At Ease" component in the executed instruction.
At Ease seems to have been an old technology from OS 9. I found this reference on MacScripter :
Two of the special folders recognized by the Path To command in the Standard Additions scripting addition are still named At Ease applications folder and At Ease documents folder, although At Ease has been eliminated (or renamed) in favor of the more general multiuser capability. Path to At Ease applications folder returns an alias to the Applications (Mac OS 9) folder under Mac OS 9.1, and path to At Ease documents folder returns an alias to the Documents folder, both at the root level of your startup disk. 1/28/01
and this on WikiPedia
Both of which are interesting, but do not explain why something from OS 9 has a reference in OS X 10.9! (‘less, of course, it’s a Cupertino/Mavericks/AppleScript is 20 in-house joke).
