Couldn't the confusing wording be fixed without additional information?
As I understand it, the problem with the current message is that the
in '⏏~' (indicated by ⏏)
part leads people to think it's referring to a position in the source code,
when it is actually referring to a position in a string. Especially because the
"in block ... in file ... at line ..." line comes directly after it.
