Description
Hello, I think you might be able to help me with this issue.
when parsing a template that contains a variable that begins with a number I get this warning here:
script = '{% if variable==true or 2variable==false%}{% remove %}{% endif %}'
Liquid::Template.parse(script, error_mode: :warn).warnings
Liquid::SyntaxError: Liquid syntax error: Expected end_of_string but found id in "variable==true or 2variable==false"
If I change the variable name to not begin with a number I don't get any warnings.
I don't understand why this scenario translates into a warning

Research direction
Reproduce the template through Liquid::Template.parse with error_mode: :warn and inspect how the expression parser handles the 2variable identifier. Compare it with the same expression using a nonnumeric variable name; done means the intended warning or error behavior is established and covered by a regression test.
