In some contexts (that I don't have memorized) a double-quote is
treated as the start of a comment.

:help :quote

Also, double-quote strings can get special sequences replaced in them
while single-quote strings don't:

:help expr-quote
:help literal-string

I tend to use the single-quote for all strings in Vim unless I have
need for the specific replacement functionality that double-quotes
provide.
