yes they are, but we thought this nevertheless acceptable in an L3
context. While expl3 runs on top of 2e there is a slight chance that you
may want to refer to 2e commands in expl3 code and within the 2e
commands to the handful of @@ frozen primitives. However, those either
exist as expl3 names, eg \tex_par:D instead of \@@par, or we could
provide them (or you have to not use the @@ convention in that part
where you really need them).
at least that was our conclusion so far.
