Research direction
Start by reproducing the freeze in a large text document by placing a single quote, using the reported micro build on Arch Linux in Kitty. Compare behavior around string highlighting and use the issue's reproduction case to narrow the cause. Done means inserting a single quote no longer freezes micro on large documents.
