Perl's split function takes a regex pattern argument. You can also
feed it an expression, which is then compiled into a regex at runtime.
It therefore works to pass your pattern via single quotes, but it is
much less obvious to a reader that the argument is meant to be a
regex, not a static string. Using the traditional slash-delimiters
makes this easier to read.
