The variable validator assumes that any AST node it gets from an interpolation walk is an indicator of an interpolation. Unfortunately, back in f223be1 we changed the interpolation walker to emit a LiteralNode
as a way to signal that the result is a literal but not identical to the input due to escapes.
The existence of this issue suggests a bit of a design smell in that the interpolation walker interface at first glance appears to skip over all literals, but it actually emits them in this one situation. In the long run we should perhaps think about whether the abstraction is right here, but this is a shallow, tactical change that fixes #13001.
