Odd behaviour of quote(do: n) - iex crashes with "do not show this result in output"

I have this weird behaviour with quoting n in iex. (1.14.3-otp25 on mac)

iex(1)> ast = quote(do: n)
{:n, [if_undefined: :apply, context: Elixir, imports: [{0, IEx.Helpers}]], Elixir}
iex(2)> Code.eval_quoted(ast)
{:"do not show this result in output", []}

# iex crashes
Interactive Elixir (1.14.3) - press Ctrl+C to exit (type h() ENTER for help)

with other vars I get the expected result.

iex(1)> ast = quote(do: nn)
{:nn, [], Elixir}
iex(2)> Code.eval_quoted(ast)
warning: variable "nn" does not exist ...

ok, I think this is because of iex using this as an hotkey.
Should not crash anyway maybe.
