Description
For example, setting a breakpoint in the middle of an aa declaration, like on line 3 here
1: aa = {
2: val1: 1
3: val2: 2
4: }
will not result in any IDE feedback; but compilation cryptically fails.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the shown breakpoint in VS Code, then locate the extension's breakpoint or diagnostic handling; done should be IDE feedback or prevention for breakpoints inside the aa declaration, without the cryptic compilation failure.
