You're wrong again. ${variable} is the same as "$variable".

From `man bash`:
${parameter}
The  value of parameter is substituted.  The braces are
required when parameter is a positional parameter with more than one
digit, or when parameter is followed by a character which is not to be
interpreted as part of its name.
