Or by using a different quote type (single vs double).

But, as [currently defined](https://drafts.css-houdini.org/css-properties-values-api/#supported-syntax-strings), there is no valid syntax string that contains internal quotes, unless they were escaped inside a keyword token. To represent a quoted string value, you'd use `"<string>"`. E.g., a syntax matching the `quotes` property would be declared with `syntax: "none | [ <string> <string> ]+"`.
