I was going to nitpick it, but then read the rest of your message ;-(

The idea was to "enclose" every TSX in "generic string" syntax so that 
whatever unpaired characters are inside (such as (, ", ...), won't 
affect syntax-ppss status on the outside. I'm not sure how critical that 
is, but I guess some users might encounter such situations.

Examples like:

   ReactDOM.render(
     <div className="">
       <h1>Hello, Welcome to React and TypeScript ;-(</h1>
     </div>,
     // type closing paren here and see that it's matched to opener above
     document.getElementById("root")
   );
