While all this is true, the question is how bad the problem is.
Daniel says the TS modes are unusable for him due to this issue.

Daniel, could you please post a recipe, starting from "emacs -Q", to
reproduce the "blinking" during editing you described up-thread?
Preferably while editing some code that one can meet reasonably
frequently in practice.  I'd like to play with the example and see
whether the problem is serious enough for us to try to solve it ASAP.
TIA.
