I did extend treesit-node-check in the patch. But I also added a function treesit-parser-live-p, which makes the same check but directly on a parser. It just made sense to me that if we let treesit-node-check check the nodes’ parser’s status, we’d also add a function to allow directly checking the status of a parser.

Micky, the function I added (and the extension to treesit-node-check) checks that the parser is not deleted AND its buffer is live. That makes the most sense to me, but would it cause any problem for your use case?
