From what I can tell Alastair is using conf-mode, not toml-ts-mode.

Alastait: toml-ts-mode is a new builtin tree-sitter based major-mode for working with TOML files.

If you have issues with conf-mode and certain TOML files, you could try that instead. I just tried it with your test-files and I don't see any incorrect fontification, so it seems to work fairly well.

Eli: If there's a bug to fix in conf-mode, I'm going to assume it would be better to CC the conf-mode maintainer than the toml-ts-mode maintainer. It might gain more traction.
