That's because it is valid syntax: the assignments get evaluated and
return the assigned value, so the effect is 'use Time::Piece 1;',

Had you assigned 2 to the variables you'd have gotten an
import error:

  Time::Piece version 2 required--this is only version 1.31 at /usr/share/perl/5.26/Exporter/Heavy.pm line 111.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t.pl line 3.
