commodore 64 butbug when I write tab in the short form

I’ve encountered a bug on the Commodore 64. When I write out the full TAB command, i.e., TAB(…), everything works as expected. However, when I use the abbreviated form, tA, an extra parenthesis is added when I list the program. I’m wondering if anyone can suggest a workaround for this issue.

example :

10 print tA(10)"x"

list :

10 print tab((10)"x"

run

syntax error in 10

syntax error in 10
