Given:
The inner ": sequence pairs with the opening quote, making a part of a quoted symbol hash key. The #{..} subexpression itself still highlights correctly, but c is not part of any quoted construct (and consequently the closing quote instead starts a new string, messing up the rest of the file).
This feels like it might be unsolvably edge-casey, but I'm regularly astounded by how well this syntax handles very questionable code, so I figured it's at least worth reporting. 🤷🏻♂️
I encountered this pattern in the wild in this file: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/40272988cec849c734ec02cfa89ff830ae019d9e/actionpack/lib/action_controller/metal/strong_parameters.rb#L51
