Local parsers, like jsdoc or phpdoc, are "ignored" by several functions used 
by treesit. But I don't know in detail how treesit works.
I tried to return local parser languages ​​in the past, but both indentation 
and font-locking got messed up.
I just tried and the result is the same (maybe I did something wrong), and 
then treesit-parser-list also returns jsdoc as if it were a global parser.

@Yuan can be of more help.

Thanks.

Vincenzo
