This is the same, @-I$2..$2 is the same as @-I$2..B&

The errors are caused by interpolations: you get something like

(car '2 18 58)

which is obvioulsly a bug.  You need to enclose the properties in  
parenthesis,
or supply the parenthesis in the formula, so that interpolation will
lead to

(car '(2 18 58))
