I think you're making Eli's point, actually :)
The problem isn't the quote: it's the CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A instead of LATIN
SMALL LETTER A. IOW, (string= "аbbrevs-changed" "abbrevs-changed") is nil.
I think Eli was illustrating the confusion that can stem from Unicode
confusables (and I must agree that the error message could be much better ^^)
