You only need quotes to force a literal interpretation of whitespace or
other special characters, or to suppress word splitting and filename
expansion (globbing) after a substitution.

Consider a command like this:

ls -l .bashrc

You've got a command name, and you're passing two string arguments to
it.  If you feel a need to quote every string argument, then you should
be writing it like this:

ls "-l" ".bashrc"

But nobody does that.  It's simply unnecessary.  Likewise, you don't need
quotes around "on" or "off" because they don't contain special characters.
You also don't need quotes around the "==" string argument that was passed
in this command.  It's funny that you would think you should put quotes
around "on" but not around "==", isn't it.
