...and that syntax applied to the simpler version:

use strict;
use warnings;
use 5.010;

my $data = "greeting";

$data =~ s{greeting}
          {my $repl = <<"END_OF_STR";
           "$repl goodbye mars";
          }e;
hello 
world
END_OF_STR

say $data;

--output:--

hello 
world
 goodbye mars

...and that syntax applied to the simpler version: While your code is quite revealing, your explanation leaves to be desired. You seem to be saying the following snippets are equivalent: `print "a", <<"END_OF_STR", "c"; b END_OF_STR` [download] `print "a", <<"END_OF_STR", "c"; b END_OF_STR` [download] They're not.
