Why Compilers Don’t Autocorrect “Obvious” Parse Er...
Because the compiler probably doesn’t have a stdin it can use at that point so you’d need to thread a feedback mechanism through the entire build process. You’re better off building that as a protocol that can be used by IDEs or LSP clients.

Excellent point. I can't think of a protocol that supports it either... Likely one exists and I haven't encountered it.
