I'm not sure how far into "final allegations" we are, but below is my
summary.

... in particular, a few weeks ago I provided, in electric-pair-mode,
means for CC mode to declare that it has this particular behaviour.
Though I'm still waiting for Alan's comments on this, I'd say the
electric-pair-mode test failure is effectively fixed if Alan aggrees to
use that customization point.
But, in my view, electric-pair-mode was just the canary in the mine:
after Alan's changes much more basic things such as C-M-* sexp
navigation stop working like they did. I am actually more worried about
these.
To recap, I like that Alan's change in syntactically incorrect code is
better "50% of the time":
char *c="an incomplete string
int a = 0;
...
}<EOB>
by not fontifying "int a" as a string, does indeed exhibit some
intelligence. But this doesn't (where it previously did):
int main () {
int a = 0;
char *c = "here's me editing a
multi-line\n\
string";
puts(c);
return 0;
}
If this switch was all, I wouldn't mind at all. Unfortunately it comes
with a very big trade-off: the underlying syntactic changes break
e.g. C-M-u C-M-SPC inside the multi-line string being edited (which is
precisely something I could use to fix the string).
I just noticed that in 26.1 indentation of the "puts(c)" wasn't affected
by the temporary editing of the string. Now it is, so another downside,
IMO.
João
