An odd difference between "cat file" and "cat<file"

You are incorrect.  The shell (both csh and sh on our 4.2 BSD system)
does expand commandnames as long as the name you are trying to expand to is 
in your current directory.  Try 'cd /bin' (or wherever you keep it) 
and then 'ca* /etc/passwd'  This works on our system.
